Are people actually getting the OGSans? I was told by numerous companies that theyre back ordered for a LONG time. Ive seen them on probably 1 car online and never at a car show locally.

Yes, youll rub. 15's with a 40mm offset and lower will rub if the car is lowered. Will it be a lot of rubbing, probably not? 195/50/15's what Id go with.

I wish people would do searches. Theres countless threads on this info. Most/all aftermarket 15in wheels are 7in wide and 35mm in offset.
Its been covered.

im not to sure if any one is getting them in stock, my friend in dallas has a coworker who has a set of red og san's. he told me that he would sell them to me with out tires for $400. im not sure what kind of condition they are but if people are having trouble getting them i might jump on it just because i might not get this opportunity again. im going to try and make a drive up there to visit and take a look at them.

ooh thanks this helps alot. i never really looked into the rubbing issues just because i had my mind set on some wheels that i wouldnt have the problem with. but the more and more i look at wheels the more i want some that only come in lower offsets.

If hes selling Sans with tires for $400 Id buy them just to resell them. You know how many people want those wheels?
Theyre hot right now, and no one can get them in stock.

And $400 with tires is a steal dude. Buy them, put them on your car, live with the minimal rubbing.
Fender lining mod should work if its rubs.

yea i did read about how you modded your fenders. that is pretty darn clever. he is selling them with out the tires. i didnt like the wheels the first few times i looked at them but they slowly grew on me. that basket weave is so beautiful. the thing that sold me on them was the four diamonds in the center of the wheel. i love how that looks.

Im a huge mesh fan. I still have my Enkei meshies in white. The offset is too extreme, no one will buy them. Hahaha!
Only thing that would push me away from buying that guys rims is that theyre red. The Sans dont look so good in red, IMO.

$400 is still good for Sans, just because theyre hard to get.

With a offset like the one on the Sans all you need to do is the fender lining mod. Thats easy.
You shouldnt need fender mods.

The Enkeis? They were 15x7in with a +0mm offset.
My ITR's are 15x6in with a +12mm to +15mm offset. Once you run some nice offset anything higher looks goofy.

Speaking of which, you've been rocking those ITR's for like 3 months now, so aren't you about due for another set of wheels?
