73 RX-3 wheel offset
What is the stock wheel offset of the 3?
What is the recommended offset for 15x7 (f) and 15x9 (r) without rolling/cutting the fenders?
My goal is to fit the widest possible without trimming (maybe minimal cutting) excessively.
Thanks in advance.

I have a 14x7.5 +4 up front and 14x8 0 offset in the back, no cutting or rolling in the fender. This is on a 77 sp, I also have a 73 but it will have a 16x7 0 offset in the front and 16x8 0 offset in the back.
The 15x7 I'm sure will fit as long as it doesnt have some crazy negative offset. but the 15x9 might be a bit much, what's the offset?

I have 51x8 all the way around on a 73 RX2. I'll check the offset but I think it's 0 as well. they tuck all the way around without rolling the fenders. I'll post pics for you when I take some.

I found 15x7 Autobahns with a 0 offset on 195 (F) and 205 (R). I'll post pics when installed.
