you don't have wheel width so no idea. Just put them on and see how sunken in they are and get a spacer that will space it out that much.

the rims i want to put on are enkei rpo1 15" idk the offset

was also wondering whats a household product i can use to clean off the rims. i tried soap and water and it only gets a little of dirt off. its pretty caked on there. could i wet sand with 1200 grit paper? would it scratch the rims

Gotta be a TROLL.

No one is this clueless.

Get some rim cleaner.
15's will never look flush because you cant get a car that low.
If they are truely 0 offset, they are already past flush and rollin mexi status.

Please post picture of your car, or a link to a picture please!
along with rim pics.

you need a shot that looks down the car so we can see where the rims sit.

Like I stated above, you cant slam 15" rims.
16's, mmmaaaybe, but not with your stuff.

50mm spacers are bolt on, extended studs not needed.

Sell your car please.

I wouldn't say you have to sell your car, but at least spend some time learning about wheel dimensions, offsets, and suspension pieces and what all is involved with slamming and flushing out your ride. We all had to commit at one point and learn it ourselves, and there will always be fine tuning that will have to be done to make it look right so we can only give suggestions anyway. I'd say save for now until you can at least get some 17s or 18s in decent width and offsets.

Its odd that Im the dick, when I am the only one posting some real advice in here, lol.

Have you read the OP's other threads?
They get even worse then this.

MY sell the car statement means, The 240 community could really do fine without people that dont want to spend the 20 minutes to search and read about how things work, and instead waste everyones time with questions that have been answered back in 1999.

dude could answer all his questions in 30 minutes and be done,
Or just join NICO :)

just to let you guys know offset is +35. i got those rims in 18's on my s14 so i reaserched them and 15x7 are +35. i wouldnt know about spacers but you are not slammed, and you have MASSIVE gaps. need 16 at LEAST but preferably 17's. i wouldn't take it as far as selling your car but do your research. i did and im still learning theres threads for everything on here and on other forums... google is your bff

measure the distance that the rim is sunken in inside the fender/quarter and get spacers then put the car on craigslist sell it and buy a civic.

the idiots in this thread are abundant....:goyou:

First, I'd recommend heading over to here: http://zilvia.net/f/chat/129865-wheel-fitment-whore-thread-stretch-flush-no-specs-no-post.html

See what you can find.. look around. Read first. Ask questions second.

And I would also recommend NOT slamming your car on 15's. Save your money and buy some 17's or 18's. And all the suspension parts to go along with slamming your car..

As for the spacers, if you're hell bent on doing this... take a measurement. How much space is between the edge of the tire and the inside of your fender? Find some bolt on spacers that will fill the gap accordingly. And say goodbye to your wheel bearings...

Your tires are to small. Get some 205/60-15 and it will fill out that wheel well better. It will raise it up but that's why you have coilovers to slam it back down.

You don't need wheel studs. Just get bolt on spacers.
