ok so heres the situation, i am about to buy some 15x7.5 konig b bombs for my 85 gsl, and preferably i want the 0 offset ones, i am lowered .75 inches on progress springs all around, will i have any clearance issues and what size tires can i get away with including possibly wider tires in the back.

oh and just for fun, i'll be painting the car white so would you go with the red center or the opal center? thanks

ps thanks alot for all the useful information on this site with everything else its really been a life saver for my build, i really appreciate it!

 

you might have some issues with 7.5 in the front, especially running a 0 offset. but the usual easiest tires to fit would probably be 195 50 15 on the front and 205 / 215 50 15 on the back.

i have 195 60 15s right now... (free tires) and 215 60 14 rear ($25 junkyard special, almost dead)

 

bump any more input on this? main concern is front fitment and the use of same tire size all around if possible so i can rotate them

 

post pics of the b bombs on the rx7 when you get them plz

 

lol i will get them if i get some more info on this

 

bump

 

cmon no one else has an idea?

 

Try this link.

It's a calculator for wheel and tire size comparisons. It will give you a pretty good idea of what wheel and tire combination will fit your car.

 

nice link

 

Stock offset on all but the GSL SE is -17mm. I would go for around this due to the extra width but you need to measure back to be sure you clear the struts also. I think with 7.5 width and 0 offset the dish will look cool but may contact with the fender lip.

 

i found another thread where you said the stock plus wheels were +17 offset. is that correct cuz if so according to this wheel calculator i can run these wheels no problem except for fenders which is no big deal i just don't want any suspension clearance problems

 

Did you ever get these? I want to know if they fit.
