Alloy Wheel fitment help needed!

[White_Lady_170]

Can some one please have a look here and see does any of these figures make sense and would a staggered set of rims fit my car?

Looking 8.5 on the front and 9.5 on the back in 18"

as far as I know the PCD is 5 x 112 correct me if i'm wrong but offset and centre bore are unknown to me (offset completely baffles me too)

Any help much appreciated!

You sound like you could do with a calculator...

Standard wheels are 7.5" ET51

Davey is running 8" at the front and 9" at the back,

thanks guys! I'll take a look at that calculator now and see if I can come to some sort of conclusion!

looks like I would be better with 8.5" wide all round and ET45 on the front and ET35 on the back...?

Anyone care to confirm?

Thanks!

Is this definitely 100% the correct size mate? Where would you get such info? I'm not doubting you btw, just want to make sure as rims are in USA!

1000000000% as the spacers you use on the mk5 platform come with a 57.1 bore.
