I hate to do this.. but here goes..
I've searched, and found many opinions... just not the right one yet. I need to know which offset would be better(furthest from rubbing anywhere).
ITR
Factory Suspension
Factory Calipers
Ecsta V700 in 205/50/15
Kosei K1 15x7 in 38 or 45 offset???
I don't want to use spacers and definitely don't want to roll the fenders.
Any body have personal experience with this setup?
Thanks in advance.

well I tried to edit the title but I couldn't...

 

It's 43mm, not 45. I use the 43mm's with 5mm spacers in back. You won't rub with 205's and the 45mm offset. The 38's will be too much. You'd have to roll the fender then.

warren, just to let you know, my K1's from tire rack are 15x7 45et. they must have changed something cause I double checked when I saw you post this previously in another post about the 43 vs 45 offset.

anyway, I'd go with the 43/45 offset, too.

 

I accidentally got sent the wrong offset on mine(38mm I believe) and they are too wide to run the Azenis tires so I had to use them for daily and put 195/50r15.

 

Is it possible to use 16x7.5" K-1's with spacers and longer lugs if need be? The tires on there now are 225/55. I could always put on 205/45's, right? Car is lowered.

It's not even close... is it?
