ok guys i have access to some rays gram lights.

they are 16*7 with +42mm offset. this is for a 4th gen lude.

will i have any issues with tyres rubbing if the car is lowered ?


also what is the stock wheel offset for the 15 * 6.5's ?

ok found out the following so far:

S model + 50 offset (F22 series)
SI model + 55 offset (H23 series)
VTIR or si_4ws + ?? (H22 Series)

 

depends on the tire size, but generally you should be fine....

 

thanks.... was planning on sticking with a 205 or 215.

 

225/45/16 is almost exactly the same size as stock(within 1%) , and you shouldnt have any rubbing issues depending on how much your lowered.

 

yeah, you should be good

225 you will have a VERY high chance of rubbing while being lowered...... go with some 205's


i'm running 205/45/16

 

i run 225s im dropped on Pro kits springs / Konis. No rubbing at all, everyone isnt as low as you Mr green lude . thats also why i said depends on how low you go

 

Yeah unless you are slammmed to the ground like greenlude or myself, you will be fine, even with the 225/45. I run 205/45/16 and get a small rub when turning the wheel when backing up. Oh and I believe my wheels are 16x7 and +43 offset.

 

^psh your not low!


i'm waiting to get some cash so i can throw some 15mm spacers up front.....+35 ftw

 

haha yeah I am as low as I would dare go, so you can keep that extra .2 inch that you have on me! And I am debating a 5 lug swap and redrilling my volks from my wrx to run 17x7.5 with 225/45/17s, but Id have to go up a bit then.

 

^ i'm just giving you a hard time....as of now i am no longer "slammed"....i have about a fingers gap in between each fender

 

Haha yeah I figured, mines still low since it sits in the garage all winter, and at least another 3-5 weeks till my broken ankle and leg heal so I can use a clutch again, or walk for that matter.

just revisiting this.. you have same suspension setup as i have and i can;t find 215 in 16's... its either 205 or 225.

Leaning towards the 225 45 16

 

215/45/16 - 0.3" smaller diameter than stock
