Would 16x7 +25 work emotion kai fit gd3?

As the title says does 16x7 +25 fit a gd3 fit? Also which tyres should i get with these sizes? Car will be on stock height. I did abit of research, should i go 205/50/16? or should go 195/55 or 50/16? the profile of tyre is my main concern.

Yes they will fit, issue you will have is the rims is quite thin for the offset so getting a tyre to fit and not scrub might be an issue. I know of a few aussie guys that have used 195/50/16 but i would go same as myself and run 195/46r16

Just seen your build thread, a nice car you have there. I noticed that you had to run spacers at the back to clear that control arm. You have 16x8.5s? and the wheels touched that arm? with my offset you think i will have that problem?

Cheers, it's getting there as for the reason i run spacers, it has alot to do with the offset of my wheels before widening them. Stickers said +38 but were actually +48 and that's not good, i minus'd 6mm off when i added the extra half inch and then it's +42. Still to tucked in and will always hit the inner arm.

Once spacer went on, it changed to +22 which is perfect, tonnes of room to play with. Your answer is...+25 will never hit your inner arm as you have 1.5" less of wheel and much more space to play with good luck and can't wait to see pics
