    enkei fitment question

    I acquired a set of Enkei's that were from a Miata. 15x7 et 35 are the specs. I am planning on running 225's on the car and it will be getting sport lowering springs soon. Fronts hit the strut and rears "barely" clear, anyone like to give me some guidance on what size spacers I need to get? TIA






    marks on the rims are from cones, going to try and get those off this weekend.

    Fronts should clear w/ 5mm and that gives you some extra room, but it all depends on how bad they're running. If the rears are barely touching you could probably get away w/ 3mm's. Just my 2 cents.


    Go here be happy!

      I'd personally do 10mm's. The offset should be more in the +20's for inside clearance. That would ease your mind about hitting anything inside.

          Mount 225 tire first, then check how much clearance you need/want.

            Im running 15x7's et25 with 225/50's so a 10mm spacer in my opinion would be perfect! Might rub a little on the front plastic. I just took mine off :D

              225 hoho's are on the rims that are pictured. Best supplier for the 10mm spacers?
