First thanks for looking! I recently bought some 16x7 Enkei RPF1's in 43 offset, I not feeling how sunk they look in the wheel wells. "see pic below"



I used to run a 15x8 wheel 25 offset on a 195/45 tire, which filled the well nice but maybe stuck out a tad to far in the rear, and i had to add some negative camber "which I didnt like" . Im trying to get the new wheels to fill the wells nice, with a little less sticking out then previous. Can anyone suggest a size space that would work well on my application. Im leaning towrds H&R spacers that bolt on so no need for extended studs. here is past and current setup

Past-

15x8 wheel with 25 offset, 195/45 tires, some camber in rear, no rubbing up front.

Present-

16x7 wheel with 43 offset, 205/40 tires, camber is set to just about stock no rub

Would a 20mm bolt on spacer push my wheel out further then my past setup? Thanks

 

If you used a 20mm spacer, your wheels would sit a little bit less then half an inch further in, when compared to your 15x8 setup. So, you may need to camber it a tiny bit to clear (depending on if your fenders/quarter panels are rolled).

 

Thanks, yes the rear is rolled. So if I am reading this right a 20mm spacer on the 16x7 would stick out less then the 15x8 setup?

 

with a 20mm spacer, you will in by 11mm than the 15x8 +25

 

Looking more into it its looking like 25mm is the only bolt on kind from h&r. So a 25mm spacer would be in the wheel well 6mm more in the 15x8 25 offset? So it would sit in slightly more? "that would be a good thing"

 

6mm isn't a huge distance, though. Its still going to be difficult to fit them without at least some negative camber.

 

ugh a 25mm spacer? man just get some wheels that fit the way you want. i used spacers but 25 is a bit much I think.
