        They're 4x100, right?

        215/40/17 will work without modification. If you're willing to roll/pull your fenders 235/40/17 can fit also.

          Yes 4x100, sorry..!!! It was worried if it was necessary to make some modification or use spacer, my car has a body kit Zender, this one makes it see very width so I need to refill with rubber the space of the fender.
          Thanks..!!!

            Hey, I just got a set of Porsche seven slots. 16x7 et+65 The offset is crazy positive. I was wondering what size spacer/adapters and tires should I get? The adapters are going to be made to order. I'm hoping for something like this:



            *Not the same wheels.

                  The general style discussion forum, as well as a place to post your car, or any car for that matter.


                  I PM'd him and this is what he replied:

                  "Hey man, It's actually my friends car, his name is T La on here. Not too sure how often he checks though. I did do the fender work however and the rears needed a decent pull in order to fit with no rubbing. I was able to get a good amount of space from the quarter itself. I first cleaned out all the sealant in the fender lip before rolling it flat. I only touched the fender lips towards the end to try to maintain stock body lines. The fronts are slightly rolled with camber added from camber plates. The rears are stock with no camber or tow adjustments just ground control coils on ix shocks"


                  ....Sorry Mystikal :D

                          Absolutely massive spacing. Like 70mm of it. 195/45 tires.

                          He has the staggered rears. AT LEAST having a staggered set (or ideally, a square 16x8) would make fitment and spacer sizes slightly more reasonable.

                            With 15-20mm spacers, yes.

                              +20 to +25 is a good baseline.

                                225/35 is the common choice. I'd suggest sticking with it.
