19X8 5/114.3 not fitting help!

So got a set of 19 inch TSW nogaro and the offset is +20 mm. Wat would be the best way to get them to fit my 93 rx7. Thanx a lot in advance.

I guess they r just not centered so the nuts dont go properly. So i guess getting wheel rings would do the trick to get them on first. Rubbing isnt the issue yet as i havent even been able to get the wheels mounted on the car. And also might need open ended nuts??

Google 'centerbore,' and 'hubcentric.'

I foresee a sequel to the autocross vid with the wheels flying off the FD

Make sure you have the right pitch lugnuts, they need to be 12x1.5. Your not going to fit a 8.5 +20 unless you run aftermarket fenders, or run a stretched tire and negative camber with a roll.

Pretty sure they're 8 inchers with a 5x114.3.

I got them on and fits perfect. Especially the back is nice and flush and still has room for a little bit of a drop suprisingly. All i needed was some open ended studs and some hub centric wheel rings. Will post pics
