right this might sound really stupid, but i bought some 16in alloys and ive fitted them onto the car. i know 4 a fact they arent et49 and i doubt they r et45's. cos they rub on the back plastic arch. i cant even have ppl in the back of my car! is there any way from lookin at my wheel that i can find out the offset of it?

On the back of some wheels you might be able to see what size it is. For example ET49 means offset 49.

It's not certain that you'll see it there, they might not have it printed on the wheel at all.
You must not take off the tyre from the wheel!!!
It could be behind the wheel, not in between the tire and the wheel! You could also find the offset from the place you bought 'em, it's propably printed on the paper boxes of the wheels.

Couple of weeks ago i tried some 16inch TSW Apex wheels on my corsa.The wheels stick out and rubbed the rear arch.Couldnt find the ET anywhere.The only thing i found out at the back was a mark like this:35P.So i think they where ET35.Could be wrong though.
