Wheel help please.

[bmac]

I am a total noob when it comes to car wheels. I am looking to get a new set since I bent one in a construction site. I am thoroughly confused on what offset I should get or wheel width. Do I need new tpms? What wheel size and tire combo won't rub? Please help.
Also was considering lowering. Should I do that first? Again sorry for the noob questions.

everyone starts somewhere man, so sweat. Check out the Wheels and Tires forums and find the Wheel Fitment and Tire Fitment charts. They're very informative and there's also a chart of people's set-ups.

New tpms depends if they damage/bent of the rims is where the tpms is mounted (tire stem). Theres way to many tire combos to even discuss so to start, you could post some picks of what you would like to be as a goal and go from there.

Heres some info on offset that I find useful.

So after going through the tire fitment thread. These will work perfectly. Hoping to get them next month.

Does anyone know if the stock TPMS will work?

 

[ADExternal]

Only time I hear people say the tpms doesn work is when they run tires to thin or when the rim stem angle isw more vertical than oem.

Good deal. I can see the $$ disappearing already

yeah whenever you go to get the wheels and tires put on, just tell them to switch the tpms sensors out of the old and into the new.
