I run the +43mm...with the 215-45/16 Azenis I had some rubbing on the inner front fender(body)...but the rubbing was slight. Mugen recommends +50 for street, and +43 for track...I bought mine used before I had any clue...but for the amount I paid it didn't matter .

I have 225/40 street tires on the +50 mm offset 16x7 MF-10s. No rubbing that I can detect.

The +43mm offset push the rim outwards 7 mm - so the widest you can go on those is 215/45 unless you roll the fenders in the rear.

15X7 are available in one offset only - if memory serves. can't remember which one though.

the 15x6.5 MF-10s are available in two offsets like the 16"s

That's mostly correct... I had Mike M. do some research into 15" MF-10 for me, and according to King the 15x7 come only in bronze and only in 43mm offset. The 15x6.5 come in bronze or silver and in 45mm offset.

No you wouldn't, but with 205/50 as wide as the Azenis, why would you need to?

Dont forget that the contact patch on the Azenis is larger than most - 215 Azenis will rub when another tire may not - Azenis are at the wide end of the scale.

Bob, tell them about your Azenis, and all the smoke they were creating at the track...

because of RUBBING...

He's rubbing because the springs on his car are too soft for severe track use - getting too much compression/body lean
