Thanks, do you think that that's the correct offset for stock height too?

By the way, the wheels I mentioned actually fit and with four of my bigger
friends sitting on the fender and in the engine compartment there are a few
millimeters left between the wheel and the fender. I think that there will
be problems with full lock on the wheel, but at 50% there's no problem.
