Any1 running 15x7 with a zero offset?? im friend is giving me his rims from an AE86 . hes giving it to me as a gift. and i was woundering would zero offset stick the rims out too much? do i have to roll the fenders flares? i just hope the rims have a more positive offset like +12. if any one has this set up, feel free to drop a pix. thx .o ya i got an se

 

is it a gsl-se or not

the gsl-se has +35 and the non-se has +20 i think

i have 15x7 with +7 on the front of my non-se, and the rim is very flush with the front fender. im hoping for 0 offset for the rear but that's just me.

i think it will be too wide either way to have to roll your fenders. they will stick out a bit

 

it is an se

 

okay, so it will stick out even more than a non -se cuz your offset is +35

but it depends on what you want. i personally WANT 0 offset

 

im just hoping it wont stick too far out. sticking out just a lil woun't matter to me too much. but im just hoping it wont stick out too far.

 

o ya i just remembered that it had a 1.5 - 2 inch lip to it. if that matters

 

it'll be pretty much flush with the fender...or maybe stick out a half an inch...or so

 

On an SE its gonna stick out a bit and rub.

My old 15X7 Centerlines had a 12MM offset and they would JUST barely clear with my SE rearend....after I rolled the fender lips.With the GSL rearend they cleared easily.
If it were a non SE you would just clear with rolled fenders,but on an SE and with no offset,its gonna hit unless you get drastic with the fender lips.

 

exactly.....real stiff suspension would help with the rubbing

 

thx guys. ill c what i can do. if anyone got pix feel free.

 

Heres a few pics from WAY back in the day....

15X6 Boyds....with a non-SE rearend it was still close,but no rolling required.1" lowering springs.You get a little breathing room up front because the independant suspension will camber in a bit when it compresses.But the rear's solid axle will travel straight up,right into anything above it....


The inch wider Centerlines and SE rearend required rolling just to drive it with 1" lowering springs.I could just,just,just get away without fender rolling before the SE rearend.But later,the SE's wider brake rotor hats pushed the 7" wide/12MM offset wheels out too far and I had to pull out the Louisville Slugger.

 

here's 0 offset for ya

epsilons 16x8.5











they are for sale for the right price. PM me if anyone is serious.

here's what they could possibly look like on your FB, except they are 15"

 

Here's a pic of my old SE for reference:



15x7 Riken; the fronts have +17 offset (pretty flush on an SE), and the rears have zero offset, which clearly stick out quite a bit. It would probably look good with low suspension (my SE had stock suspension) and rolled fenders.

 

d0 Luck, on the red 7, does both front and rear have zero offset or just the rear? and thx to all that help

 

Maxpower: i can almost help you.. i put stock MKII supra rims (14x7, near zero offset) on the rx (83 gsl) for ***** and giggles... its gonna look exactly like d0luck's... but it'll handle better than stock.

i hope you like fender flares.

 

thats not bad. im just waiting till i get thoughs rims so i could post som pix. hes still looking for rims to put on his 86 befor hes giving them to me.

 

you don't want to run 0 offset in the front since it cannot accomodate lower offsets in comparison to the rear. your best bet is to run a set of staggered wheels. even then i don't suggest running low offset wheels since they would ruin wheel bearings with the quickness.

these advans SA3 i also have for sale 4x114.3 bolt pattern are staggered and would actually look good on a GSL-SE. they are forged lightweight 2 piece maybe 3 piece (depending on the way you look at it) wheels.







16x7 front 32+ offset
16x8 back 32+ offset

if anyone looking wants these wheels, just PM me.

i also have 15" SSR EX-C Formula mesh wheels for sale



here's a pic how they would look like on an FB



lastly, my AR Centerlines are what you would consider low offset wheels. 14x6.5 or 7" wide(?) but deep dished wheels. once again, they are also for sale and are a complete set of 4 wheels.
