In order to run a 10.5 rear what would the offset have to be?
Basically I want to pick up a set of wheels, but the 10.5 rear was made for a 6 series. But if I recall, I read a thread that somebody was running 6 series fitment.

Ok I called the shop today and he figured it out for me. In order for me to run a 10.5 rear I'll need a +32 offset and he said it can be done.
Also, he told me that Marcato is still in business but only does custom rims, therefore I have to wait 2-3 months for them!!! I'm not a patient guy at all, so I'm going to have to think about it.

What size tire are you planning on running back there? Don't go any thinner than 285.
I was reading a post by SJ who has these exact wheels and he made a good point that a 285 rear is too hard to maintain, I assume he means that it balds out faster because of camber, and his 10" rear still looks good.
Should I just order it? Order it and wait 2-3 months? By then it'll be October and I won't get to show off my wheels for the summer
