    This was very well explained. I've learned so much on this channel! Without RC Review, I have no idea what my RC collection would look like.

    Thanks for the explanation. I like the look of wide wheelbase on my RC cars. I have treal beadlock wheels on my trx4 bronco2021. I am now thinking of getting their 10mm or maybe the 15mm extended wheel hubs. Any experience with what may be better? Is 15mm too extreme? I have also read in some blogs that an extender could cause binding and I wouldn't want to trim or modify the beautiful trx4 bronco body. Any thoughts or experiences you could share and any other possible disadvantages I should be aware of?

    Thank you for this! I just recently offset the wheels on my Sendero HD. I basically just flipped the wheel around. I haven't tested the performance yet, with the additions of added weight to the axle and carrier hubs, I am hoping it will make it a bit more stable especially on a sidehill.

      Very cool to hear. Most folks have some idea what offset numbers mean but we want to help dial it in.

    Hi. Great video.
    I have one doubt regarding the alloys.
    My car has wheels of 215/65 R16, 6.5J(OEM offset). I have installed alloys of 7J & +20 offset with the same wheel config. Is there any possible damage I would get to my car's suspension.
    Tires are now pushed to outside.
    Thanks

      To calculate, you would need to know your OEM offset. You can find them online. A regular European/Japanese offset is +35mm. Going from +35 to +20 = 15 mm.
      The extra width of 0,5J = 0,5" = 0,25" both sides, Is just 6mm per side (outside going outwards, inside going inwards.

      @@nelissuh The wheels were too shrunked in to the wheel walls, before installing the alloys. Also couldn't find the OEM offset, I guess it's almost near to +40 maybe.
      My steering is a bit, slightly heavier now and ride feels a bit on the stiffer side also. I am using mpv/mini van type car.

    Thanks for the explanation. Just as a matter of interest and concerning real cars here in Europe, any negative offset to the point where a wheel comes proud of the fender is illegal ! Big fines if you try that on your car here.

    • @nelissuh

      In most EU countries, the surface of the wheels touching the street must be within the fenders. The rims can be outside the fenders. This is why you see tuned cars with narrow tires stretched onto wide rims.

    Lol how do u Corner balance a 6x6 do u need 6 scales

    • @RCReviewChannel
      @RCReviewChannel  2 года назад +1

      Yes, for the perfect reading, you need 6 scales. But one can get a good idea for front/back weight by putting the 2 rear wheels on one scale per side.

    Not for rc drifting. + makes the wheels poke more and - makes them sink into the wheel well more.

    Wheel offset has nothing to do with the body/fender of any auto. It is solely based on the centerline of the wheel. Positive offset positions the hub farther into the wheel, beyond the centerline, while negative offset positions the hub behind the centerline, and less deeply into the wheel. Wheel offset also changes steering/bump steer/handling.

      He clearly explained what offset is? And both manufacturers and tuners regularly use offset to position the wheels flush with the body/fender, simply for aesthetic reasons. But, yes, offset alters front/rear track and that effects handling, scrub radius, steering, etc. However, there are far better options for tuning a car, full scale or RC.
