this is for my 99 c5 trying to see if i have the right offset. i do have the TPE front and rears fenders. i also have upgrade calipers,rotors and hats below is my measurement i made on my own. the biggest issue is going to be the hats on the rotors. front are 1 3/8 thick rears are 3/8 thick (i do have extended studs frt and rears) on the bottom of each pics (PDF file) and my hats thickness and below is the stock thickness.
front wheel offset +45
rears wheel offset +57
front brakes setup dont have a pic for the rears
What wheel widths? Are the fronts fenders +1 and rears +2?
i have tpe rears and forgedstar f14 wheels. The rears are 19x12..with a 24mm offset.. they stick out maybe a 1/2 inch but barely noticeable..hope this helps..
remember the problem is my custom hats on my rotors acting like a wheels spacer.
And, you never answered my question about wheel sizes. How much thicker are the rotor hats? Are those C5 rotors? Have you tried to fit any wheels, yet?

they are on the PDF file on first thread. all the brake sizing
front rotors thick is 1 3/8 stock rotors hat is 19/64
rear rotors hats are 63/64 stocks are 1/4
ive been told i have wildwood calipers and pads and coleman rotors and unknown hats
i bought the vehicle with the brake upgrade. they are a c5 lug bolt pattern (i matched up a stock front and rear hub Assembly from the parts store) with extended studs
im looking to fit 19" wheels front 11" wide and rears 13" wide
i already purchased 285/30/19 tires up front.
they only wheels i have are aftermarket wheels. weld wheels and the front poked out. i have not tired to fit stock wheels on.
thank you

19x11” with a +44 offset is 7.75” of backspacing fronts. 19x13” with a +41 offset is 8.65” of backspacing rears. does this sound right??
Are these wheels you have, now, or just what you want to buy? If it's the latter, what is the offset on your 11" fronts that have too much poke? I assume they cleared your front brakes ok but just didn't have enough offset. Do you have a photo, with those wheels on the car?

those size are for the new wheels to fit my wide body. i contacted CCW. they gave me their numbers what my set up should be.
my back spacing is front 7 5/16" rears 8 3/8 these are weld wheels that are on my vehicle now.
my front wheels always poked out like a 1/2. i have 18" wheels idk about the width. also the fronts are very very close to hitting caliper and the spokes
Those calipers look like nothing I've ever seen and those hats, too. If it were my car, I would install brakes that I absolutely knew were for that car. It would greatly simplify things and probably cost you less, in the long run.
math and custom offset on wheels
