            if i'm not mistaken 35 mm offset with 6 x 14 s , 24mm for 7 x 15s bear in mind offset in relation to wheel width gives actual placement on the car

                You need to ask you question here http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=83125 and will have to provide the et information to get an answer. The et is the most important information regarding fitment period.... Depending on et will depend on spacers etc.... So get more information together and post at above link and Jay will get you and answer or just read the thread and it has probably already been answered....

                  Another option some of you might want to consider is Team Dynamics PR1.2 or PR2, in 15x7 ET15 offset. These will take 205/50 pretty easily, and 225/50 might require rolling the fenders a bit. The 225/45 I haven't tested.

                  The TD wheels have the correct hubcentric fit, and do not require centering rings. They can also be used with stock length wheel bolts.

                  Most TD wheels are sold in ET25, so these ET15s sit a bit farther out, eliminating the need for spacers. [Edit: My point on the ET25 wheels was that many racers choose to run spacers to push them farther out...The ET15 achieves the same effect naturally.]



                  The rears tend to be toughest to fit, and lowering (even with stock LCA bushings) provides enough negative camber to get them to squeeze inside the wheel arch.

                    15/7 et 25 should not need spacers...I run K1's, et 27...15/7 ...w/ 225/50 15.......no spacers.

                      I am currrently looking at a set of wheels that are 15/7 ET27. Do you have any problems with the tire rubbing against the strut housings? How close is the tire to the strut housing. Thanks Matt

                        superduperclose!>>>>>>Toyo RA1's are fat.....but I track car w/ no issues. I imagine w/ some cars and sagging components it could be a minor issue. But a thin frt spacer would do it........Massive Lee has nice affordable pieces....and he makes nice things.

                              As long as it has the correct center bore, I believe the only thing you will need are spacers. I am not too certain of the size for the spacers but I believe 10mm should suffice.

                                Thanks gtdragon980.

                                Just one question more because if there is not the 8" wide wheels anymore left in stock, does the 16x9" ET20 (with 225/40 tyre) fit also in front? Or need the spacers then?
