Default So the offset on these wheels are 45mm

Boston Driver made a good point about the depth of the spoke and wether it will clear the caliper there, talked to the seller and he'll allow me to try one on for size. Will it matter if its on the jack as far as brake clearance?

Not the ones in the pic. Those have been canned.

Default the problem with the hubcentrics is that the small ones are hard to find to buy...

usually the hubcentrics start at 20 mm and up to buy and are pricey through h&r. i suggest doing some window shopping first...

the wheelcentric ones go from 2mm- to up to whatever you might need.

and make sure you buy long enough bolts too...
dont want those wheels to fall off!

27mm + spacer #mm + usually 6-7 turns of spare space to screw into the actual hub

Default may i suggest Velocity Motorsports or Hartmann

for the companies you want to buy through. They will have specific information for you on brake clearance for the c5a6/b5s4, and whether or not they need spacers

my friend bought the ones for 489 + 89 shipping on ebay and those are all already vibrating due to small bends 'ugetwhatupay4'

For brake clearance - no problem. On the jack is fine.
