Best offset for AE86 (15x7)? Wed, 07 July 2004 13:13 Go to next message
I'm considering buying 15x7 wheels for my AE86 and I think the choice of offset is +15 or 0. Which one would be best considering the car will be slightly lowered? Will be putting 195/50 or 195/55 tyres.

Once I get the wheels I'll be selling my Watanabes F:14x7 R:14x7.5 deep dish (Genuine) Gunmetal Grey just like Takumi's so watch out in the 4 sale section soon!

Agree with takai.
On a RWD car, as you increase the width of the rim you need to reduce the amount of offset. 15 x 7's on an RA23/28 fit best with an offset close to 0, so that should be the ones you want.

I'll let you know first Garth. The front is +3 offset and the rear is -3.5 offset. I would prefer selling all four wheels as it would be harder to sell the remaining 2.

I'll put details and pics when the time comes which will probably be in 1-2 months the earliest.

Thanks everyone! so I'll be ordering 0 offset then...
