What offset is common for the PR2's in the SHO 5x108 bolt pattern? Or does anybody have a set available they want to sell?

Thanks.:thankyou:

that doesnt sound right, my 17x7 pro race 2 rims were 45mm. Wheels for the sho are generally between 40-45 mm offset.

Does that mean you could have fit Cobra R brakes?

I dont know about the clearence with the pro race 2's because with 45mm clearence the cobra calipers were pretty close i dont think the extra 10mm would be enough, but the pro race 1 with 40mm offset have the room.

I'm curious; why the 35? is it to pull the wheel closer in?

The lesser the offset the further out of the wheel well the wheel will go.

Yes, assuming the widths are the same. For example, a +45 offset on an 8" wide wheel vs a +35 on a 6" wide wheel. Even though the 6" wheel has a lesser offset, the 8" wheel will be further out of the wheel well (by almost an inch). Also, they will have different strut clearances. Therein lies the problem with saying 'so and so offset is needed', because it can change some depending on the width of the wheel.

TD PR1's will fit over Cobra R Brembo calipers with plenty of room left.

Every time ive thought of wheel offset ive never taken that into consideration, thats good to know. the only time ive thought about different offsets was when i was trying to push my pr2s out of the wheel well more.
