Options Autosalon has Mugen wheels for sale.
They have the ones I like; MF-10 in titanium 16x7.
Now, they have two offsets; 45 and 50.
Which one is most suitable for my R?

Any input is very appreciated!

Thanks fellas!

P.S.: $495.00 a piece, including center cap. No bad?

 

I think stock is 50. youll probably want 45 but thats just MO.

 

I found some answer from King Motorsports. It seems they suggest +50 offset for the Rrrr..

 

+50 offset might give you problems if running wider tires such as azenis.

 

From personal expierence -> +43, more versatile for further upgrades

True that. I'm running the +50 offset and I get slight rubbing in the front passenger side when taking hard turns. I'm lowered on the Mugen Lowdons (Does Mugen still make the lowdowns by the way??).

Even with my 5 mm spacers I still get rubbing on hard turns but not as much. I just cover up the bare metal with black paint after the event it over.
On the driver side, the plastic melted from all the rubbing so rubbing is not an issue anymore on that side.

 

I haven't experienced too much rubbing on +45 16x7 w/ 215/45 Azenis. +43 16x7 w/ 215/45 Azenis I experienced quite a bit of rubbing.

 

+50mm give you more clearance from the inner fender and maintains stock geometry and scrub radius.

+43mm give you more clearance from the LCA - the widest tire recommended with these is 215 section width.

I run 225 width tires on the +50mm rims no problem - but what it really depends on is the tire itself. Using Azenis as an example is misleading as they are usually wider than they say they are.

I think you are going to run into the inner fender before the LCA - but that's my opinion.
