I am quite sure I have read all this right but, like a noob, I want to be sure before I go out and spend some money on Tyres.
I bought some black Pro Race 1.2's, they were originally going to be either for the Clio (depending on fitment) or the Proton as 'every day wheels' (proton now in bits so that option is out of the window).
I just wanted to check I have read the sticker correctly (pic of sticker below) and that they will be ok. They are 16", 4x100 (that part is obvious), 7J wheels with an offset of 38. If that's right, they are a perfect fit for the Proton (reason for buying them).
Searching the forum suggests the offset for the PH2 172 is 48.5 and I am almost certain that a smaller the offset will make the wheel stick out more. My car is not lowered, I don't plan on lowering it at all and the standard 172 wheels are quite far from the outer part of the wheel arch (again, pic below) so I am thinking it will all be fine, but wanted to know if anyone had put ET38 wheels on a 172???
