thinking about buying a set of RKRs size 15" by 8" with -10mm offset. anyone tried these out and if so how did they fit under the fender without flares. did your roll your fenders. Any suggestions about -20mm offset or konig rewinds?

edit: 4x110 on an 83 year

 

Any wheel will look good.......other than the Konig Rewinds....they are played out.....

 

15x7 20mm is generally the go to size for 15" wheels. The 8" might work in the back, I don't know. However, 8" might rub in the front. A 195 is a safe tire size for the front. Some run a 205 but have a little rub on the sway bar and lip. I'm not a fan of rolled lips. 205 will work in the back though.

 

Rewind is the only affordable option we have for these cars, I'm not paying 1000$ for fake mesh rims unless it's 3 pieces and those are almost 2 grand. I'm not complaining, I got my rewinds new, all four for 250$.

 

Rather be looking good in fake affordable than bad in real affordable.

 

Is not that if they are real or not..... everyone has them and I think they are butt ugly.... It's your decision.....I'm only giving my opinion.....

I prefer 100% my factory 13s refinished......

 

I refuse to pay 1000$ for knock off mesh rims even if they look good , plus most of them are used . 3pc mesh rims are sweet but as noted , seem to cost 2000$+
In my brutal opinion almost ALL 4x110 rims are ugly AF aside from OG watanabe rims , those look amazing . If i could put some modern rims on this car I would the issue is clearance even if you have the GSLSE bolt pattern ( alot more options) , I'm not a fan of wheels sticking out past the car for more than a inch. The nicest looking wheels I have seen are those cool american racing steelies , with a nice 1 inch drop they look super agressive , but I can't seem to find any.

 

15x8 with a negative offset is gonna poke out past the fender.

 

Thanks guys I think i might do steelies from diamond racing or rewinds with the 15x7 -10, I also dug up an old rx2 thread talking about 4x110 wheels, the thread mentions a company in australia with decent wheels called performance wheels, checked them out and they have some watanabe replicas that look pretty good. If anyone is looking for wheels as well I would take a peek at their selection. Thanks!

 

I love my factory + wheels in 13" as well, my problem is tire choice. There doesn't seem to be any good options left.

 

Rota makes 15' knock-offs with a depper, chrome / brushed aluminum lip , you can find them for 700$ EACH . the MSRP was about 350 $ each but they have skyrocketed.

Also good choice on the diamond racing steelies, those are sweet!
