how about you be smart enough and just fit them already and find out yourself

How low on off set can i go with 17x9 on a s13 hatch, i know that 15 would fit but i wanted something lower.

You must also suck at spelling. seArching

My friend has the same spec rims as that, and he rolled his fenders just in case. You might as well roll them anyways. He has 195/60/15 tires on them. Tire size makes a difference too.

How about you make your own thread about it or SEARCH. Don't threadjack!

OK you need to search OFFSET.

or just search 15x7 +0

Anyways, that will be a little TOO flush, it'll stick out a little bit, and YES you will need your fenders rolled.

I have 15x7 +12 and it's PERFECT flush (for the front, little sunk in the rear.)

by saturday it will be a 17x9 +10 all around for me, tucking tire. just roll and pull.

__x7 with any offset over 10 should clear without having to roll

0 offset, you may have to play with the camber or just get your fenders rolled/pulled

The Longchamps I've got are a 15X7 -15. Shitty offset I know, but they were cheap. Needed spacers to clear STOCK callipers, but no pull to fit them. I run a 215/60/15 btw.

if you arlready have the wheels take a half hour or so and put them on. then you'll know if they fit how you like. :mepoke:

15"x17" +0 and negative camber = just fine...

the coilover design makes a difference as well. on agx shocks, 15x7 +15 was just about flush but on tein super drifts, which have the same shock body as the flexes, those same wheels are sunked in just a tad.

I'm either stoned or you make no sense.

Anyways, I've got a set of 15x7 +0 meshies and as long as you have the fenders rolled and a bit of camber it wont be a problem. Or run a tire with a smaller sidewall and see if that would do it without having to roll.

I use to have a 15x7.5 -8 offset setup up front on my PS13. But Camber solves all the rubbing issues u might have....and btw i never once rubbed with these on my car and i was slammed on my JIC coilsovers..

there is no perfect offset. the perfect offset depends on what your perception is for the percect offset.

+7 all around works well with -2.4 rear and -1.8 front camber and 205/50s. 205/60s with on a +4 were close but still fit.

It depends on what your definition of fitting is.

I have a 17x9 -10 in the rear of my S14. I also run a 225/45 on said 9 wide rim. And -2.8 camber.

To be honest, i like the way my car feels at this setup too so it's no big deal to me (most people hassle me for the amount of camber i run, but i like it that way)

Right now i have the issue of it being so low that i am slowly digging out my fender well...i'm gonna notch it and hammer it away this morning though

I'm running 15x7 +0 on 195/55/15 tires and yes, they do stick out a tad but they are perfectly fine without having to roll the fenders...
