#186179Whats the ideal offset for W124 500E?
Hi guys, im new here..Just wondering whats the best offset for W124 500E fender?
My current wheel now is F18"x8JJ+47 (still have 5mm space) / R18"x9JJ+47 (still have 20mm space for a tight fitment)
Im thinking of changing another wheel. Im planning to get a PCD converter 112 > 114.3 (25mm)
I spotted a PCD114.3 wheel but the offset is F19x8.5JJ+38 and R19X9JJ+38
so i calculated with the 101 wheels calculation, here's the result:
Inner Clearance: 3mm more
Outer Position: Extend an extra 15mm
so 15mm + 25mm(spacer) = 40mm all around Front & Rear.
Is it wise to cut/pull/weld the front fender? i guess i need to pull 2cm for the rear and 4cm for the front.
Need the VIP guru helps
Thanks
