    Any thoughts on 195/75/14 on 14" weaves or bottle caps fitting without issue? Overall diameter is 26.1".

    Was there any rolling/mod work needed to make this set-up work?
    Are there wheel-well differences between touring and coupe?

    How does a 16x7.5 et35 wheel with a 215/45 tire sound? Thinking of some BBS RY055's

    Yeah I guess it doesn't seem to matter. My car has studs, but I have a feeling they'd run straight even with stock bolts as long as you're careful snugging them up.

    I've run non-hubcentric wheels for years without issue. The trick is to use the right pattern and tighten them up before you put it down on the ground. Also, having a stud conversion helps.

    Thought I'd contribute. Stock basketweaves in black. Kumho ecsta 4x 205/55-15

    Also those rally tires look sick!

    ET30 is a good offset for an ix wheel at 8" width. Looks great!

    I feel like all of these questions about ix wheels at ET 25 or less can be answered simply - no. ;)

    I just picked these up for a pretty good deal locally since I think we'll do a couple autocrosses with this car this summer and I don't own any summer tires. ESM-001 16x8 et30 (?).

    They have some pretty tired dunlops on them so I'm currently considering either the Dunlop star spec or toyo r1r in 225/45-16 to run in STX. Any input on either of those? Other options are slim in that size.





    Then there's the ratty rally tire setup- stock weaves with 205/65-15 Lassa gravels.




    Sorry, edited for massive pictures...
