Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
On a compact performance platform, every pound of rotational mass fights the car's natural agility. A forged wheel keeps strength at the factory-rated level while cutting that rotational weight, which is where the driving-feel improvement actually comes from.
The Peugeot 208 GTi 30th Anniversary Edition ships from the factory on a 4x108 bolt pattern with a 65.1mm center bore and a 18x7.5J ET20 wheel. Our flush reference for the Peugeot 208 GTi 30th Anniversary Edition is 18x8J ET15.; our maximum aggressive reference is 18x8.5J ET10. — beyond that, expect clearance issues against the fender liner without further modification.
