Default offset maths

i got an email from a guy selling Works Rezax but he's not sure of the offset he has messured them but am clueless and dont know if they will be ok for the s2000 ? Only getting 18" because iv bough a big brake conversion and my 17 are never going to fit over them


Fronts:- Hub to rear = 155mm, hub to front = 90mm
Rears:- Hub to rear = 170mm, hub to front = 100mm

I've got 330mm disks with 8 pot calipers

I run a ET45 7.5" wheel up front with a 5mm spacer.

I don't think you'll need 18" wheels, but as people have said it depends on the style/type of wheel.

Once you've got them, swap the Nankangs out! I had them when I bought my S and they were dreadful!!
