Hey, im just about to get some rims and my questions is does anybody happen to know that offset on my 97 Honda Accord SE, if anybody has anything it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

 

The offset can be from 35 to 42 mm on your cars wheels, no matter who's brand you buy..
Hope this helps you out !

Why is offset important? Other than the spacing between hub and rim? And what can be done to fix or mess up the offset?

I have a '97 SE too so i want to know in case i change rims/tires someday soon.

 

The offset affects the suspensions motion ratio, which directly determines your effective spring and damper rates.
Your offset surface of your wheels is relative to the wheels centerline. The wrong offset can and will cause rubbing problems when your suspension is compressed or when you turn your wheels..
So you can see why the offset is so very important for you to figure in when thinking about buying some new shoes for that Whip of yours...

Hope this helps you all a bit more...WheelBrokerAng
