Hey, I waws just wondering, if you get your wheel arches flared or rolled, does this fix the offset problem which geminis seem to have?
thanks, zep

If you make a search about it, there is lots of discussion, apparantly the offset is my like the e30 bmw one: fucked. lots of rubbing and shit happening. I just dont know, you say you got ET30 under your arches, and then I have people telling me that I need at least ET38 and the others saying ET25. I just dont know what to believe anymore...

the offset is ET38...and its easy as piss to fit 17's under them..but i would roll ya guards anyway so they wont scrub on the front and shit if you lower them

theres no problem with the gemini offset. just ppl buy 2nd hand mags and bitch cos they dont fit (because the were of a fucking excel or some other car with a different offset) and cry because the dont fit cos the geminis offset it wrong, when its there rims offset that are wrong cos there from a different car.
if u buy the right rims they will fit.
i have 17x7.5 front and 17x8 rear with 215 tyres and i have no rubbing
