SSR MKII-R?

Good luck finding a set of those :D If you do I'd guess offset will be honda-ish +40s (it looks like this guy is running spacers/shims) or they will be very low but 4x114. Thats just a guess though - its not everyday those rims pop up.

His wheels are 16x8. He's running a 195/50/16 for a tire, if I remember correctly (I actually just looked up his car today). I can't remember the offset. I think it's like +32 or something. His username is fsr20det.

thanks guys, i found his porfile and pm'ed him. i like the way his car sits w/ the 16", i'm looking at 16" wheels as well, but still couldn't figure out the right offset, so i'm just researching/comparing.

thanks again,
benjamin

do you rub at all? are the fenders rolled? how come you're runnig 195/50 and not 205/50? i know there's more tire selection w/ 205/50. and do you have front camber bolts?

thanks,
benjamin

i've only rubbbed when im turning and hit a bump or going at a high speed over a dip. the fenders are not rolled. i ran a 195/50 so i could get as much stretch out of the tires that i could. kuhmo's are bad for stretching. i regret buying them over dunlop's or falken's. the cusco suspension has has adjustable pillowball mounts in the front.

And actually, a 195/50/16 is closer to the original 195/60/15 tire diamater than 205/50/16. However, I believe there are more tires availalbe in the 205 size.
