I'm sure the offset of my wheels are 19mm. Cant check as I'm off on hols tomorrow.
I'm sure someone else will be along to confirm.

I have got 14" ET23 offset Minilites on my STM Locoblade which were originally fitted to a Caterham if thats any help

Hi

It was all based around using the std Ford offset for RWD. Aftermarket wheels for this aplication will vary from 19 - 23. Any of them with that offset will do but you will struggle to get bigger than 6" wide under the rear arches. But theres no need to go bigger than 205 on the rear in any case.

Cheers guys, i've been offered a set of 5 spoke compomitive wheels, they were fitted to a 106 for one rally, they in mint condition, i think the off set on them is 38 from memory.

I have seen a picture if an aries car, i think on there site before he put the new gallery bit on to it of a green(ish) coloured car with 1.9 gti alloys of a 205 on it, that's what got me thinking these would fit my car
