Will they tuck in the rear with negative camber? My coilovers are soooo low, and theres no way i'm raising them up haha. I'll roll my fenders, but I dont want them to rub or shred my tires.

I dont think they will cause they are only 7.5 not 8 like the other 15" rims. but thats a good question.

Well if my math is correct, and it is I think haha a 15x7.5 +0 would be the same as a 15x8 +15(ie 501's) so bummer, I don't think it will clear.

Jason, if you get a set, post up pix of them on..... let me know if they'll clear in the back.

If not, Looks like I'll be rocking the new DR20's instead haha.

Yeah, I'd be willing to go to some pretty big lengths to make them clear.... throw them on the lathe and machine down the back of them or whatever.... best looking wheel i've seen in a LONG time!

Whats the price gonna be like on these?

I like the fact that they have only one lug pattern on them not two like my 501's.

And they look easier to clean/detail.

I'm having problems with my 501's vibrating at 70-80 despite many efforts to correct it. I suspect it may be due to the width of the wheel, do you think these slightly more narrow wheels would cure that?

It's not the width, have had 3 sets of 15x8s and they were fine when properly balanced. probably an unevenly molded tire.

That is true. these are the SSR MK3 replica. and as for the price I belive that they go for about the same price as the Sport Max 501's.
