172 alloys on a 182

[tonaz]

i was thinking of getting a set of the 5 spoke 16 inch 172 alloys for my 182 but was unsure of the offsets of both, are they the same? also are they the same width?

i would only be interested if they would be the same or if the 172 alloys would sit wider in the arches than the standard 182 ones i have at the min.

probably a stupid question but can anyone help or show me a picture of a 182 (non-cup) with the 5 spoke 172 alloys on?

cheers

They will fit yes

i know they will fit just didn't know if the wheels were the same offset and width ie will they look the same or better than the wheels i have on now. cheers.

172 alloy offset is 48,5 and 182 alloy offset is 45

So the 182 alloy sits 2,5mm wider than 172 wheel, but I'm sure you will never notice that 2,5mm difference
