buying new rims - ej8
hey guys i have a 99 ej8, i'm looking at a set of 15x8 rims, what offset do i need, i dont want crazy camber, or my wheels sticking out of my wheel wells, i'm also on a 1.8 inch drop, any help would be great, thanks in advance.

Re: buying new rims
You can't fit 15x8's without fender work and negative camber...and they'll look dumb without quite a bit of negative camber to pull them into the wheel wells.
You can't run high offsets or you'll rub parts on the inside of the wheel wells. You can't run a lower offset without fender work and negative camber. More of an issue in the back rather than the front, though.
15x7 +40's fit just fine. Why not use that sizing? Or 15x8 front, 15x7 rear...if this is being done to actually make the car faster...

I was looking into the street 517, and I can't seem to find them in a 15x7 not looking to race it, it's a daily, and I hate the cambered look with the wheels looking all bug eyed
