cb77 front and rear wheel offset

Post by byrdman76 » Mon Jun 01, 2009 2:20 pm

I tore everything apart before I measured the offset - Doh!

Anyone have any numbers to get me started?

Thanks,

Byrd

Both rims front and rear. I took the spokes out of the rims and separated them from the hubs before I measured the off set.

Do you have any measurements LM?

No offset, rims should be centered on hubs. Regards, Chase

How come others speak of offset on the forum? Do some aftermarket rims require you to offset the hubs and the OEM' do not? Not doubting you, just looking for some education ;)

When ya see a hub with one side where the spokes install has a larger diameter than the other (MAICO) ya may see that the rim isn't centered to the hub. Usually ya will find that when all spokes have the same amount of threads in the nipple that the hub will be centered. ............lm
