just out of interest are these a different offset to standard 16v wheels?

thanks

Hmmm i remember reading somewhere once that they were a different offset which helped to make the willys a wider front track!? :s

But then willy and 16v front arches are the same!?

Interesting!

The Williams definitely has a wider track, as you probably know. (It has a different Anti-Roll Bar, different bottom supsension arms, and possibly different hubs.) so I dont know about the wheels.

As far as I know, the rear beam is identical on both? so if the wheels were different, it would c**k up the geometry on the rear? Or are the rear beams/hubs different?

Think the 16v offset is 36, and the willaims is 38. Could be wrong though.

 

[ryan22nd]

how about a rsi?? would it have any effect on the breaks??

The offsets should be the same - the willy wider track is simply down to different wishbones/driveshafts/shocks/ARB. Remember if you compare the wheels, phase 1 16vs are half an inch thinner than willy or phase 2 alloys which may make them appear different.
