offset question

[2590402]

Will a 15x7 +38 offset work with our cars?

Thanks,

Andrew, expect an inner clearance loss of 35mm and they will stick out about 15mm more.

29 is the original offset for 5 / 5.5x13" rim

33 is the offset for 6x14" rim

pre-fit any rim to the car for

brake and suspension clearence, then mount a tire for

body interferance problems

Maybe with a 10-15mm spacer and thin tires.

As it sits, it'll hit the struts.

The ideal offset for 15x7's on an '02 is et26 so with those wheels a 12mm spacer should do the trick. WITH longer wheel studs!!!

A 195/50-15 tire may fit w/o rolling the fender lips but a 205 will need a little massaging of those fender lips.

I've seen et24 through et28 with 15x7's fit with either 195's or 205's depending on the clearance of any individual car. So, that said if you have trouble finding 12mm then 10mm will work.
