Birkin factory mags offset

[KiwiBirkin]

Hi does anyone know what the offset is for the standard Birkin mags that are supplied with the car around the 1996/97 year of manufacture. These mags are still on my car and can be seen under the members rides section, I cant find the offset on the mags anywhere and would like to know as I want to replace them. In mm if you can please :)

Cheers KiwiBirkin

If you are going to have 2 sets of wheels and tires, you may consider 13-inch wheels for your more aggressive set, and the 15-inch for touring.

I know there was a group buy on Kodiak 3-pc wheels a while back, but those wheels are pretty expensive these days. Same with the Panasport 3-pc. I have 15" Enkei RPF1's for my regular wheels and those are less than 10 lbs each. Any other wheels out there that are pretty light and not too expensive in a 13" size, 4 x 100, 30mm offset?

V2 Competetion Drag wheels -13x8 +20 - 11 lbs.
Lenso VPD - 13x7.5 +25 - 8.5 lbs.

I use Diamond racing wheels. They are lightweight steel wheels and they are made to order in most any bolt pattern and offset you'd like.

Mine are 13 x 8 and they weigh about 11 pounds and only cost about $65 two years ago when I got them.

Very good folks to deal with.

FWIW brake clearance on my 1999 Birkin up front was no problem but it was very tight in the rear. I did a bit of grinding to high spots on the caliper to get it to clear.

OK..........

I weighed mine when they came in and I didn't write it down but they were less than 12#.

Better to ask Diamond if the weight is a concern to you.

Another alternative is Real racing wheels

The 13 x 8s are about $195. Not as pretty as some of the other wheels. Of course, Panasport makes 13-inch wheels, but pricey.

Thanks for your input guys. I don't think it's going to be this year, but maybe in the future if I can start doing some track days.
