Crossthreaders Posted September 28, 2018 Report Share Posted September 28, 2018 Hi everyone, just joined the forum and hoping I can get some helpšJust purchased my first car, a 94 850 T5 and looking at some different wheels. I had a quick look on here and people are saying that 17x7 and around a 38-40mm offset is the mostĀ youāll be able to fit on an 850. Currently Iām looking at these V50 wheels, the issue is that they are 17x7.5 and have an offset of 52.50. I really quite like them and for $400 for a set of 5 it seems like a good deal. Does anyone know if I can get these to fit/what modifications Iāll have to do?Ā Also, I hear something about late modelĀ wheels not fitting because of their hubcentric sizes or something? The tires on them are 225/45/17 if that helps, I read 225 is as much tire as you can get on an 850 aswell. Any help is appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmsgltr Posted September 28, 2018 Report Share Posted September 28, 2018 I like those wheels... What suspension are you running? Are you lowered? Modified fender liners? Rolled fenders? 225 45 17 will be overall too tall for the 850 in my opinion regardless of your suspension. That offset will be fine but I think they have a different size hub bore than the 850...
