Complex Rim Sizing Algorithm

Im a novice to rim fitting, and I don't really understand how it works. Im interested in the ADR Intense rims for my 87 N/A base, and I found a good deal on some near by. Will these in 17x7 size work?

Your base model has 4-lug hubs?
17" x 7.0", +40 will work.

the 4 lug patern is 4x114.3

the stock offset on a 7" wide rim is like +38 or +40 cant remember which means these wheels should fit great.

Probably not, if it does fit it'll be very close to the suspension and you'll be limited to narrow tires (205/50/17), besides, it'll look all sunken into the wheel wells, lower offsets fit and look better.

That's such a gay fitment. It's a FWD fitment, technically. I can get you 4 lug 17x8 and 9.0 for CHEAP in 4 lug.

if you want some cheap but nice rims then get the SportMax wheels.

i can get you those for real cheap.

Here's photos of the different ones they offer:

006 and 009 I can do for this price to your door. I don't ahve them in norcal so you might as well have them show up at your door or you can will call them from me in Milpitas.

Price for either: $625.00 OTD with sales tax and shipping to your door.

006


009


These wheels have good fitment for the 4 lug FC with OEM style struts and springs.

you can run a 225/45 and 255/40

You can see more details on our website here:
