Hi all. As title suggests, after 1 13x7 superlite wheel. Have got 2x 13x8 superlites and 1 13x7, would like to make a set up if possible.
 
Let me know what you have! After anything old and daggy to repaint or even a buckled wheel as can get it repaired.
 
Think the backspace on the 13x7 is around 82mm if that sounds correct?
 
Will post a picture of the wheel.
 
Cheers

A backspace of 82mm would be about an offset of about -20, which sounds awfully dished.  The more common offset is +12 (for a backspace of about 114mm), which suits un-arched cars well.  I suggest checking the wheel for offset markings, and if there are none, measure the backspace carefully to confirm whether your reading is correct.

Hi there
 
Thanks for the quick reply. Just remeasured then... Look slike 95mm. Definitely no more. Fair bit of dish on them, can post a photo up tomorrow

That would be -7 offset then, which companies like Performance Industries (Superlite), JBW etc. offer in that size, and does indeed have a nice dish.

Anyone have one hanging around in their garage that they don't want?
