I want to upgrade my stock wheels to a 16"X7" rim. The car has not, and will not be lowered. What offset should I be looking for..38,40,42???? Thanks!

Tamago 12-22-2004, 06:38 PM if you're not lowering, and running a 205 width tire, you should be fine with anywhere from 38-42 . i run 17X7's with 215 width tires on a +42 and only rub in the front on hard right turns. barely touching actually.. matt_a 12-23-2004, 02:07 PM Cool...thanks. I just got my wheels and tires put on yesterday. I went with a 16"X7" wheel with a +42 offset and 205/50/16 tires. Nothing rubs and it looks good. HUGE improvement over stock. 8) Tamago 12-23-2004, 03:20 PM nice! any pix? matt_a 12-23-2004, 03:30 PM nice! any pix?Not yet. By the time I got home from the tire shop last night, it was almost dark.
