    Is this possible?
    Can I use spacers (5mm)?
    Is this possible w/ Billys & IE3's?
    Should clear the front struts by a few mm. Will rub in the rear without a fender roll.

    Overall if you don't have the tires already 205/50 is a better choice.

      Just purchased wheels in 16x9 and 16x7.5, 4x100, et15 & et20 respectively - looking for ideal tire size, prefer staggered. I have a set of 215/45/16 on another set of wheels I can re-use.

      Car is lowered on JOM coilovers and is an early model vert. I am also hoping for a nice flush fitment.

      Thanks in advance!

          I have a set of RC090's I'm gonna be running 205/45.

          I only need some wheel adapters, but I don't know what specs to get them in. Can you tell me what's the center bore for the RC's and other things I should know?

          Thanks in advance!

                16x8.5 ET15 all around with 225/45/16s. Late Model.

                I ran 16x8 215/45/16s with an offset of 5 no problem, but im wondering if this will clear the strut on the front. Any insight?

                  Put the 215/45s on the rears and buy 205/45s for the fronts. You'll probably add front spacers later to even out the fitment.

                    Fronts yes, rears will need spacers if you used Z3M axles.

                      That tire size is already too tall, and with adapted low-offset wheels you can only run stretched rubber bands.

                        195/40 F 205/40 R. Lots of fender rolling. S.drive is probably the only tire available anyway.

                            Yes, it will clear the struts.

                              What kind of wheels/wheel spec can you recommend that I can run the most rubber with?

                              I have a 89' s50 4 door with Tokico Shock/Springs all around, I can get my hands on a fender roller aswell.

                              Thanks!
