Stock 2010 MCS R56 17" max offset

Hey guys,

My original wheels are corroded, and it's been too long now that i'm looingk for 17x7 or 7.5 aftermarket wheels for my R56 MCS.
i really like BBS style rims, but most of the time they come in a 35 offset, like the JUNK https://www.wheelbasealloys.com/allo...back/2007-2013

which max offset I can go without facing any pb ?

seems you're the only one to be curious...

I also found DARE wheels https://www.daremotorsport.com/cast-...silver-rivets/

Maybe someone could give his opinion on BBS replica wheels, which brand to go ?

My guess is everyone is hoping you will do a search. There are threads on here that cover this subject in great detail. IF I remember correctly 35 is about max for a 7 inch wheel.

It's late and I have screwed my post up twice so I will give you the short version. I run a 17x8 with 35mm offset with a 215 wide tire and feel that's the max without any real issues. If you have a 7 or 7.5 width wheel with the same 35mm offset then you will have more clearance then mine. 0.5 inch is 12.7mm . With the math then a 7.5 width wheel will have 6.35mm better clearance and a 7 inch wide will have the full 12.7mm better clearance then mine. Hope this helps.
