I saw them Azenis tires at discount tires today. There's a whole lot of rubber on them treads..

Anyway,, I ended up going for the Konig CounterSteer wheels. 16x7, +40 offset. And as usual, black.

Gotta save money first!!!

 

Any one running a 15x6.5 +32 ???
i wanna know if anyone is running that offset if so what size tires you running???

 

I want to get a set of 15" Rota Auto X wheels for my wife's fit sport. Could I use our stock 15" tire on these wheels? I have the Dunlops on there. Thanks.

 

as long as the rims are 15's they should fit most aftermarket 15 inch rims.....the 195/55 is a common tire used, that and the 205 width

 

Thanks for the quick response. The Rota rims are 15X6.5.

 

bump some one help me out plz..

 

i ran them for awhile running 195/45/16. You will rub. mine didnt rub, but i ran my coilovers on the stiffest setting so they wouldnt.

 

agree with Chris here.

you can run a 195 or 205 width tire with that width of the rim. sidewall can be anything from 55 (stock....wouldnt go higher than that) to 45 (more ideal considering the tire will be on the fender lips anyways.

but yeah prepare for rub with that offset.

 

how bad is the rubbing at that offset? can you live with it? and how damaging is it? will it just rub the inner fender well plastic til its worn? then it'll stop rubbing right?

 

with that offset youll be rubbing on the fender itself. Might bend out the shape of the fender a bit.

Here it is on my car, you can notice it sticks out a bit farther than the fender

 

I see what you mean! thanks for the help... what if i went with a +35mm offset instead? would that be enough? or do you pretty much have to go with a +40 and up?

 

35 wont be as bad. I would reccomend +38to+45

 

I looked around and didn't find a thread on this so here it goes...

I bought some tires off the internet, does anyone have suggestions as to where to get them mounted on the rims? It may sound stupid, but I was just wondering because some businesses may not take it very kindly that I ordered tires from the net but others might be totally cool with it... and maybe this varies from location to location. Any thoughts? Thanks...

 

My only suggestion is to dig out the phone book and simply call some places. I bet most will do it because money is money. Just try to find the best deal.

 

When you buy tires from a shop, the mounting and balancing is free (part of the price).

But pretty much any place will mount tires you bring them... they'll just charge you for it. $15-25 per wheel is average.

 

Go to Find a Recommended Installer and see if they have a recommended installer in your area. They will probably do it for you.

 

Thanks. It does look like $20 per tire, but that's not bad. The only place I could find tires for my wifes car at a decent price was online. The first name to come up on the recommended tire installers was the one I was thinking about going to. Thanks again!

 

Will the work? Memoryfab - Used JDM Wheels

I really really really hope they work. Any idea if they will? I know the offset is nuts and so is the tire size...HELP!!

Kris

 

Not likely. Between the extra 1/2'' in width, plus the 14mm difference in offset, they will almost certainly rub if it's lowered at all...and probably at stock heiht too.

 

yeah, that looks like a recipe for rub-a-dub-dub! My 16 x 7 are +43, and If I put 12 mm spacers on I think I would be in trouble, If you rolled your fenders and left at stock height you can probably do it.
