18x9 cobra r's??? April 23, 2006, 12:12:12 PM Hey guys i know this has been done to death but i've looked around at other posts and not found a correct offset or real answer.Here's the thing,i got some free(can't beat free)new 245-45-18 eagle rs/a's and i was looking for some rims to put them on.I have come across a brand new set of 18x9 +24mm offset 4lug crome cobra r's for under 1000.00 canadian.Now i've seen different offsets such as +12 and +30 on here for correct wheel spacing but i need to know if these will fit and work correctly.I know hawk now has 18x9 wheels but his are custom made and i don't know what offset he used.Anyhow,this is for an 87 TC,any input you guys have would be awsome as always,thanks.

You're thinking of bolt pattern.Stock offset on '87 Snowflakes was +31.8mm. Anything +18mm and over should be fine, but I wouldn't go under. Quote Selected
18x9 cobra r's??? Reply #4 – April 25, 2006, 10:37:59 AM Yeah, you are right. I am thinking of the bolt pattern. Now that you mention the +18, I am pretty sure mine are +24. We had to check into them actually fitting my car too, I remember. So, I KNOW they are 4 1/4 (LOL) and pretty close to positve the offset is +24. Not sure what size my tires are though, I just had them ordered to fit my car/rims, my dad took care of that. Quote Selected
