Offset program

I don't know if this has been posted or not, searched it.

I was searching google to find any clues as to whether a set of 16x7 +15's would have too much front spacing for my s13, and I stumbled upon this program.

http://www.rims-n-tires.com/info_specs.jsp

Check it out. You can compare any wheel you want to the stock size wheel and tire, which I am not quite sure is exactly (maybe 205 60 15's on 15x6 +30?)

here is the trade when it comes to wheels

make the CAR fit the WHEELS. not the other way around.

i have a 7" +23 and it fits blah.

and yes i know it says s14 down there, but i have a s13 as well

What do you mean it fits blah. Probably sunken. You don't modify the car to fit it's wheels. If you modify your car, find wheels that fit your modifications, but don't make the modifications simply for a wheel. I might be getting some slightly wider fenders, but I don't know.

I think the +15 7" wheels will fit fine, but I don't know for sure.

dude, you have 2 threads concerning fitment about the wheel. as stated before "flush" is all personal perferences.

7" +15 will fit fine w/o modification.

you say you want super jdm flushness 5 cards. that is why i say make the car fit the wheel, not the other way around.

buy a wheel, put it on and pull according to rims. simple.

7"+15 will fit find and will fit better than +23 that i have. quit bickering buy the wheel, if you dont like it, run a spacer.

simple.

This thread is not about my wheel size, it's about that URL i posted that none of your posts have anything to do with. I only mentioned my size vaguely, and you stayed on the subject. So if oyu aren't going to post up about what you think of that program I found in that url that allows you to compare offsets and whatnot, then don't post on my thread. If you want to talk about waht oyu have been talking about, post on my other thread :P. SIMPLE AS THAT!

ps: I was concerned about whether it would stick out, not whether it would be sunken in, spacers won't do **** for a frogged wheel.

best way is to experience things first hand. the thing wont even let you stretch tires or account for negative camber. sounds more of

input rim sizes and ill give you a good tire size you shoudl run
