Offset???

Need an answer that I can not find.

What is the factory off set for the 13" FB's and the GSL-SE?

Thanks, been looking at a set of 17" rims with a offset of 40 in the 4x114.3 pattern.

Ya, I want to stay in the 300-400 range if possible since I still have to buy rubber.
Why can't the Kosei K1's fit? maybe I will swap my gsl-se pattern over to the gsl pattern so I can get those.

im not sure about the 17's but the 15" rotas are on ebay for $315. and you cant beat the weight for the price(slipstreams are 11.8 lbs for 15's)

I believe the non-se wheels are the same offset as -se wheels. Around -35mm to -38mm. I've read that FWD rims won't work cause they have too much offset. Also, regular RWD rims won't work either. There inbetween.
