Help an ignorant newbie?

Post by ZeroNilNada »

OK, I have had a hard time getting all the offset stuff all figured out so I was wondering if one of you experts out there would be able to tell me if these would fit a 1966 SPL311:

Please?
Thanks!

Usually with a 14" x 6" rim, a +15mm offset is used.
A zero offset rim may be OK but it will be further towards the outside of the car.
Why not measure the rims you have now and then compare their position with the 0 offset rims.
From my experience, the 14" rim will clear the front suspension parts OK.
As for the rears, you should check clearance to the wheel arch for a 0 offset rim.
