Trophy wheels offset?

[timo172cup]

Can anyone tell me the offset of trophy wheels? I believe they are different to a 172 cup?

42 or 43 if I am not mistaken.

ET43 IIRC - they are different to 172 Cup ones.

 

[Tom]

Cup is ET38.5
Trophy is ET43

 

[timo172cup]

so with 4.5mm spacers they would fit ok? or is that a bodge?

 

[Tom]

Why?

TBH the ET38.5 on cups is essentialy a "bodge" as its a 172 setup (et42afaik) with et38.5 wheels bolted on

Bolting Trophy wheels on would just put the track back to 172ish spec.

Ah ok.

Im after some 15" wheels for track use. I have seen some forsale that have previosly been on a trophy.

Just wondered if it would affect the handling much.

I run ET35 Turbines on my 182, apart from the silly wide track i dont get issues.

You wont notice a handling difference.

turbines is my 2nd option as I have a set laying around somewhere.
