I was just thinking, well for a while...
Everyone asks about ae86 wheel sizes, particularly offsets and how it will fill up the wheel arches.
With a few simple measurements I was thinking write up say.. a java program applet... downloadable or maybe inbed in the toymods website somewhere.
Could even include tyres, and if it will scrub or not etc.
Or if it wil clear a stndard strut etc, and how big spacer needed if it doesnt....
etc etc....
Thoughts?
Shouldnt bee too hard at all I believe.
Just a simple program, a lil thinking and some members to take soem accurate measurments and donate that info..

For the sprinter newbs out there it would be a handy tool... and if you can be bothered...
I'm unsure but i think tyre sizes for the sprinter is getting kinda rare since most cars are taking on fatter rims as standard.
Like 195/50/15's etc... where as it would be more common for a 205/40/17
Am i wrong? Cuz thats what the dude at a tyre store told me when i bought my tyres.

Just the offset (in releation to guards) alone would be handy, I got nfi when it comes to that.

I use a zero offset with 7.5 on the front and 8's on the back and they're perfect.
They rub when i hit cracks on the road.
