Default 16" rim question..

well im lookin to get some new shoes for my car... i have 17x7's on now with 205/40/17 and im thinkin of gettin some 16's.. MAYBE 15's but i havent found any i liked yet..

now im not exactly sure what offset the rims i have now are.. but im guessing its +40? they're konig verdicts.. if anyone knows a place on where i can find that out.

but im lowered 2" and i rub a bit.. so what would be my best option if i was to go with 16x7's.. keep the 40 offset or change it? cuz i do have some neg. camber where the top of the rim tilts in a bit.. im going to get either a better camber or some springs to lift me up a big.. maybe some eibachs cuz this 2" is way to low for daily driving.. gives me the non-gap look like i wanted on the fenders.. but i really hate sacrificing drivability for looks..

so what should i do bout the offsets?


yes i did search and i found more q's on 15" rims.. under archived content in teg forums

Even if you do rub with your new wheels, remember that you can always roll the fenders.
