Correct Offset/Backspace for Wheels

[Ivanflo 24]

Hey guys, 

 

Having a look at some new rims for the ghia, Bassett DOT's if anyone is interested.

Hoping to get some guidance on correct offset/backspacing for them.

 

front - 15x8, +6.

rear - 15x8, -12.

rear - 15x10, -12??

 

Picked these offsets as they are the ones available on their site, perhaps they might be able to make them in others too.

 

-12 on the rears, because it annoys me to no end how my current wheels sit in a little compared to the front & get a bit of dish. 

+6 on the front because thats whats available, but maybe 0 would look better? i.e push the wheel out a bit more?

I have found similar wheels in 15x10, 5 inch back space sound good? Will it fit easy?

 

All this offset stuff has me a little confused, so not sure if i've worked it out right. anyone running bassetts?

Gee they look a lot like AERO race rims.  I run them on my modified.

I did follow that thread, shame it never got finished. read that and a couple other threads.

 

so how does this sound?

front - 15x8, 0 or +6 offset. 4.5-4.75 backspace

rear - 15x10, 0 offset. 5.5 backspace

 

guards filled??

I have had a look at aero and diamond race wheels, any local suppliers or brands anyone knows off?
