Re: 7x13 on a rabbit what offset (brinskan)

what tire size? havent decided that either i guess. I think most of the PVW guys run about a 20et but i think they usually have 13x8 with maybe a 195mm tire. Atleast thats what it looks like, maybe a 205.

Re: 7x13 on a rabbit what offset (brinskan)

ET25 will work but you need to run spacers in front (13X7 ET25 will rub the strut at the lower bolt flange), ET20 will work but you might need to mod the fenders depending on the tires.
This is with ET25 (7mm spacers in front) and 215/50-13 Yoko A023R rubber, required fender work but the added front track works great!

Close...Panasport doesn't make 13X7 4X100 in anything but ET0 (yes zero...for BMW 2002s). They are Compomotive ML with a matte black powdercoat (but a bit o wax makes em nice and shiny
).

they are ET25[HR][/HR]​
Yes but not 13X7...and I bet they are older, Panasport used to make lots of fitments for 4X100 but not in the last ten years or so. That's why I went Compomotive, at least they would custom machine any offset I asked for!

Re: 7x13 on a rabbit what offset (millerwj)

I believe that the '02s are 4x100, but honestly I'm not sure. I happen to have a set of Panasport 13x5.5" or 13x6" (ca. 1975) in storage. They just need to be bead-blasted and clear-coated. Might look good on my cabby (or another Vortexers?).

02's are indeed 4x100. stock offset is about +17 or 18mm for the 14x6. The 13x5.5 stock steel wheels are 25mm offset. The wider they get the further out they gotta go to clear the springs.
Durell, are you using spacers with those 13x7's?
