NB 16" wheels width and offset?

Postby bruce » Sat Jul 26, 2014 6:39 pm

Hi,
I've got an NA with NB 16" 5 spoke rims (thin arms). I can't find anywhere which lists the width and offset? Can't be bothered taking off a wheel to check for markings (not sure if there are any).
Thanks guys,
Bruce

From memory width is 6.5" and offset is 40.......

Yep Bruce,
That is right,
16X6.5 and +40 offset.
