Look here for my understanding of everything to do with rims.

I believe the stock offset is around 25.

You will want an offset under 30. The AMG pentas came in offset 11 for 8" wide and offset 17 for 7.5" wide rims as are on my car.

Remember that "pentas" is a generic term to refer to this style of wheels,
you can get them stamped from AMG, Ronal, AST etc...

The Ronal R9 wheels were available in 15 or 16" with the ET anywhere between 0-45
the offset should be printed on the inside of the wheel.

Nutz, do those tables mention stock offset or are they just showing rims that will fit?

Can anyone confirm that the steel rims and the stock alloys use the same offset? I know my steel rims are stamped with a 108 part number but don't recall ever seeing an offset figure.
