I'm currently on Buddy Club P1 Racing 5 lugs. 15x7JJ +42ET the thing is, with my EG9 and those EK9 knuckles, my tries sit 5mm out of the fenders. Nothing some fender roll can't fix. The thing is, I've finally retired my b16a and plonked in a B20B and relegating the car to a DD/Casual use car. Since I need more traction now with the B20B's low end. I'm thinking of swapping to 7.5-8 inch wide wheels s but can't find an offset that fits. Any suggestions?

Doesn't matter brand or if it comes from another make. I just want to put in 8" wide wheels and 210-215s on my car.

 

Without pulling your fenders significantly, you'll want to stick with an offset that is between +35 and +45. I don't know of a tire size that's got a 210mm treadwidth, but that may be a regional thing.

I would recommend running a 225/45/15 on some 15x8's, if you could.

 

Yeah, I thought there was a 210 size too, apparently they're just for motorcycles. whoops.

Anyway, thanks for the tip, but that's the thing, somehow the swap to ek9 knuckles messed up my front track width.

what makes for a flush fit on my rear end, in this case +35 with 15x7's would result in my front tires jutting out a half inch. I'm having to run staggered offsets in reverse currently, +35 rears +42 fronts. which still makes the front end tires jut out by 5mm.

Thinking of swapping wheels, but after trying a few without success of getting the flush with fender/body look, I'm resorting to HT peeps who may have encountered this problem and gotten it fix'd.

It this somehow due to my chassis or is anyone with EG with the EK9 knuckle and trailing arm swap having? I'm somehow thinking the recourse is modifying the original knuckles to use 5 lugs.

Browsing wheel catalogues only to find that Et45 and up kinds of wheels are hard to obtain in the aftermarket japanese wheels inventory.
