Default help needed

i have a buddy of mine selling Works Vs-xx a disc 19x9.5 +29 and 19x11 +24. how would the offsets look? i'm not sure about the whole a disc thing? i currently have volk gt-s 19x9.5 +17 and 19x10.5 +18. the works offsets sounds horrible compared to the volks. can somebody explain the difference between the a disc and o disc? would the disc make a difference with offsets?

i dont know anything about the disk etc. But the offsets dont sound too bad you could always throw a 5mm or 10mm spacer on them to get you back down even more aggressive then your gts now. Imaging the rear 6mm's more sunk in to the well which is litterally about this far... --- lol 6mm is not much at all.

I believe that the

A-disk center is more vertical, allows for slightly more brake clearance.

O-disk spokes curve in on the center to exaggerate dish width.

No. Remember that offset is a key to clearing the brake callipers. Offset is a consideration but not the only consideration. So is spoke design.

Works Vs-xx a disc 19x9.5 +29
volk gt-s 19x9.5 +17


Here is a potential problem with the Works front wheel. You will be 12 mm closer to the brake calliper and strut housing.
