Default Offset?

So nobody knows what our wheel offset is? Will 16" wheels work of another cruiser or another car from the company?. Just thinking winter..........

I think the offset has to be at least 35. My aftermarket wheel (17") were only 35 and they didn't clear the front caliper edge. I had to add 3mm spacers which did the trick.

LAF,

I'm pretty sure the offset for the PT is 40mm but I'll check the other forums to be sure....

I've checked around and seems to be quite a varity of answers. From MX-5 who is the GURU of mechanical stuff: The PT is 5 on 100mm with a 34mm offset.

Most others say anywhere from 35mm to 40mm will do for the PT.

Take your pick [:I]
