Hey guys I'm looking to get some wheels for my first gen. It's a 1985 GS
I'm looking at aero wheels and I love them but I have no idea what the stock specs for my car are and I don't know what specs for the wheels I need. Thanks!

And these adaptors....

Will it work with 205/50 tires?


More directly, will the centerline of the wheel be about the same as the original?





The wheels are a +42 offset and the adaptors are 1" thick. That should be about the same center line right?





Opps I just noticed the adaptor spacing.... I know its wrong , but the thickness is what I'm concerned about. This more of an OFFSET question.

Qingdao, should work fine with stock suspension or even aftermarket shocks and springs. But it probably wouldn't fit on the front with coilovers.

Back when I had stock suspension, my ROH wheels with +20 offset fit great. Even when I had the re-speed street coilovers that sit on top of the original spring perch, they fit. When I went to full coilovers on the front, my 205/50/15s rubbed the springs.

Your choice of wheel with those spacers will really give you a +17 offset, so it should be very similar to my old setup.

You could always put GSL-SE brakes on the front and use 4x114 wheels or go with a big brake kit and use 4x114 or 5x115 wheels.
