Thumbs up Offset for 15x7 Minilites

OK, another solution to the Panasport dilemma.

Minilites (the original style wheel that Panasport copied), are available in custom sizes for just about any car.

I have an '85 GSL with the 4x110 bolt pattern.

I'm wondering what offset I should specify.

Also, in case you were wondering, 15x7's are 295 per wheel, so they about $80 more per wheel than the Panasports, but you get the real thing.

I have +18 I think, that is what Panasport suggests. It is on a 16x7 wheel if that makes a difference.

I can send you pics of the fitment if you like.

I'd love to see the pics.

I'm thinking 20mm is probably the way to go. I can specify whatever I want, but I was hoping someone with 15x7's could confirm that number with me.
