Help needed. Anyone have WB wheels on NB (carrera sport wheels)

Hello, I apologize if this thread exists somewhere else. I have searched everywhere and am getting mixed information. I realize WB offset is different than NB offset. Specifically on carrera sport wheels the WB rear is et50 and the NB is et67.

Has anyone seen or is currently running the WB carrera sport wheels with the 50 offset in the rear on a narrow body? If so a picture of this setup would be greatly appreciated.

so if anyone has any solid information on this please let me know..

thanks again-

I just put on WB Turbo wheels on my NB C2S last week. The WB Turbo rear offset is 51 and the front offset is the same but the wheel is 8.5" instead of 8". If I did my calculations correct, it's similar to having a 6mm spacer in front and a 16 mm in the back. Seems like lots of people do 5mm in front and 15 mm in the rear. Probably easier to search the forum for pics of the Carrera Sports with spacers instead of the WB offset on a NB car. But here's some pics of my setup.

Thanks for you response your car looks great by the way.

I just wanted to see if anyone has seen or can produce a photo of the carrera sport wheels with the 11.5 inch et50 offset on a narrow body. I've not been able to find evidence that this set up can be done on a c2.

An 11.5 inch et50 offset may make the wheel sit a bit outside the fender. My turbo wheels are 11" in the rear and are flush. Good luck with the search for your question.
