Wanted to order 18x7.5 Tenzo RS5 rims-Silver, with +38 offset. Wheelsnext was out of stock. Called wheelbuy.com and they said they had them, but only +40 offset.
I basically told him I was looking for +38, then he said Tenzo did not make a +38 wheel  He made it seem like Tenzo did not make ANY rim of +38 offset.First: Is this true? Second: Should I settle for the +40 offset? For all the $ I'm spending, I figure I should get what I want. PS: I want to avoid using spacers.... thats another reason. Third: Does anyone know where I can order: 18x7.5 Tenzo RS5 rims-Silver, with +38 offset. --------------------  |

+38 = +40 in offset speak. We ARE talking about 2mm here. Thats 1/5 of a centimeter difference. They fit and no one will be able to tell the difference.

[right][snapback]272744[/snapback][/right] Dude! i was thinking the same thing! I talk to my friend and he said you might be suprised how a +38 and a +40 offset might differ. We all know how tricky buying the right rims is. I thought it might "say" 2mm on paper and look totally different in person. I was just thrown off by that guys comment. I figure if others make +38 y not Tenzo. Thanks jgreening. Anyone elses 2-cents on this? This post has been edited by UTSlickVic: Apr 17, 2005 - 4:42 PM -------------------- |
