Hassle by wheel distributors .!!

[hillclimbmanic]

Trying to order Lenso BSX (Oz looky-likey's) and they are REALLY negative about TVR's...
Can anybody with 7.5"x17 front, and 8.5"x17 rears, please give me the offsets...

I assumed that 20-25 front, and 25 rear, would be ok...Please enlighten me.!!!

From memory 25 front, 32 (this is the one I'm not so sure about) rear.

ETA - this is for 15" front and 16" rear so you may well need different offsets.

I put 15/16 standard sized BSXs on mine, ordered through Wheelbase in Oldham.
I ordered and collected in person, but they do do mail order.
Dead helpful, and they sorted the custom-machining of the offsets - afaik Lenso do it themselves, but Wheelbase could also do it if needed.

The rear, 16', are ET25 ...

I have Estorils on my Chimaera and unless they were different on the Griffith, the rear 16" wheels are ET33. It's the 15" fronts that are ET25.

I believe the last SE models had 16" wheels all round so 7.5" wheels with ET33 will fit on the front. I tried some 17" (7" wide) wheels on my car last summer with ET38 and on the front, 5mm spacers were needed to stop the rim hitting the suspension arms on full lock.
