Looking through the minilite website I noticed they do a 5 x 10" wheel with 's' offset.
Does this mean you can run this particular type of wheel without arch extensions???

So they do stick out beyond the arches??? Grp2 arches would be required?

So with a 165 tyre width what would be the difference between a 4.5 and a 5" offset minilite. The tyre width stays the same so protrusion shouldn't be much different...right???

In the days of the original magnesium Minilites they did offer a 5" rim with Cooper S offset (or should that be inset?) which did not require arches.
I think 251ENG has a couple.
