C5 wheels on a C4
Was just given an entire set of OEM 2000 C5 Wheels. The wheels have a 16k on them and are in perfect condition. Was just wondering if the offset for my 90 and also what size of tires I should use on them or should I use the stock C5 tire sizes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The current wheels on my car are 17 x 9.5 with 275/40 tires. C5 wheels are 17 x 8.5 with 245/45 tires on the frt and 18 x 9.5 with 275/40 on the rr. What I don't know is the offset of these wheels. I do know that the offset on my original wheels is 56mm.

From what I can find out, the 17x8.5's are 54mm offset, and the 18x9.5's are 57mm offset. You can double check those numbers by measuring the wheels yourself. Use the diagram below, it's pretty much self explanatory.

Thanks for the fast reply, those offsets should work fine with my car. I have had a really hard time finding that info, so thanks alot. I have never seen another C4 with C5 wheels on it, but I would imagine it would look good. I haven't picked them up yet, but do a test fit when I get them, will post pics when I get them mounted.
