i was checking out some JDM wheels and found the sizes and offsets.....



RIM SIZE(OFFSET): 15X6.5(+9) 15X7.5 (+21)
BOLT PATTERN: 4X114.3


i know nothing about wheels and looking for help from experts(people on this forums)....


if it does fit...........what kind of spacers do i need to make it flush with the car?

ok, so heres the deal, first off you will need a bolt pattern of 4x100, not 4 on 4 and a half, secondly those will stick waaaay out of the wheel well. in my opinion +35 up front and + 25 is the rear will give you the best look, but mostly it is your car pick the look you like, i wouldnt get anything above a +40 or +42 without needing to run spacers

How would 17x7.5 40mm up front and 17x7.5 20 mm rear look

If you don't want to do much rolling or grinding of the rear fender, I would stick with tinybigrig's recommendations. I have a 35mm offset in front and a 20 mm offset in the rear. This is pretty much the same wheel track in front and rear. It looks good, but it was kind of a pain to work the rear fender such that it would not rub. Even with a 25mm offset in the rear, you may still rub. I know I would have.
