Wheel offset?

I am looking to buy some wheels for my Tiger Avon. It has Cortina hubs on the front and Sierra hubs on the back. The PDC is 108mm. The question is what offset do I require? The size I am looking at is 15". Not sure if that makes any difference.

A while ago i asked the same question.
The answer was that the Cortina uses ET22 and a sierra ET38-ET45.
Most of the reactions : "just use the off-set from the sierra and the car will handle ok"

Hijack time, sorry!

tj, love the Kadett!
Worst thing I ever did was to hack up my immaculate 1.2SR Coupe to make a rally car, then trash it before the first event

Thx, i own it about 13 years now. I'm getting used to the car. Still like the relaxed driving of it.
20 E litre engine 8valve old-style CIH.
the only problem is it is an opel. So rust is coming my way

I put a 1.9 CIH in mine on webers. Was pretty quick. Rust on the bottom of doors was fixed using Chevette f/glass doors with cut down frames and perspex 'glass'
