Title: offset steel wheels
Post by: stingerx on December 28, 2003, 03:02:13 PM

greets all,  well santa was good to me this year and im finally lifting my 01 tracker 2door.  ive read through and saw that there are no offset wheels for the grand vitara, nor spacers that fit.  are there any wheels or spacers that would fit the 2 door tracker? i want to go 15x8, with some 30" bf goodrich ATs somewhere i read that the gv had larger brake calipers preventing most wheels to fit.  thanks, any help on this is apprieciated.

A set of 15"x8" rock crawler black steel rims fit the 2 doors with an 4 cyl. the calipers are smaller than the v6.

I just put 15x8 rockcrawler on my 03 Vitara and had to use spacers. They cleared the caliper width wise but not offset wise. Not sure with the tracker just be ready to get them if needed. They run like 200.00.

RRO sells wheels with varying widtrhs and offset spacing.  I just put 15X7" steel wheels on my 2002 2 dr tracker.  The wheels had a 3.25" neg offset.  With the extra width over stock, 1.5". the 3.25 offset was not enough.  Needed at least another .5" offset or 2.75".  The wheels hit the brake calipers and also rubbed the frame a little at full lock on the driver's side.  Using an 8" rim will need even less neg offset or spacers.  RRO would be a couls sorce of info.
