same as me, stances are way beefier than teins. you might need to run like a 3mm slip on spacer or something. i was a little scared they wouldn't clear when i test mounted them.

would 17x7 with 38 offset (front) and 17x9 with 35 offset (rear) work. What would i have to do?
Im on stock suspension going on tiens in the near future. Also wanna make clear the bolt pattern since im new to the rx7 it is 5x114 right?

Had her sideways on the test drive, unsure of what's in the rear. but she's mint.
lol non turbo, thanks for all the info.
I am only paying 1200 for the car and it is freaking mint bro. It has a full Racing Beat exhaust and sounds amazing, stock 4 lug. It has an HKS trans and fluid! lol makes tons of noise but shifts absolutely amazing.
she's quick. and a shiton better than a neon.
Does anyone know about my above question?
Do four lug miata wheels fit on a four lug fc?

I've ordered up some FEED Frenders - So I'm getting some new alloys, unsure of what offsets/alloy widths I will need to make it look good though.
The fenders make the front arches 2.5cm wider & the rears 2cm wider. I would want to run 18s. 255 front & 265-285 back (unsure - don't want to slow it down too much as its only ~320rwhp.)
any ideas?

"flush" is a relative term these days and doesn't actually mean flush (as in dictionary term. level with). So give us a tire width you'd like to run and how much your willing to butcher your fenders and I'm sure you'll get the offsets for the look your after.

9.5, +17
so just plug in something like 9, +22 and see what it says. if anything you want more inner clearence and like retract 25mm from the outside, i can barely fit a peice of paper in between my coils and wheels. but i think with a 9 wide you're going to have to do a really good roll/slight pull regardless. run 225 front tires for sure, maybe even 215's depends on ride height

Hes looking to run 8 in front, 9 in rear. With a 225 front and 255 rear 30~35mm offset will fit no mods at all, if you want them to stick out past the fenders and you WANT to roll your fenders (notice he said roll and NOT pull), then lower offsets will be needed like a 25mm offset. Anything more and you'll probly need narrower tires. Hopefully guys that have more experiance making low offset whels can give a better offset, I'm used to making wheels actually FIT on the car with tires that FIT on the rim.

I have a question guys, and girls. Is it safe to put 10mm spacer on a 18x8.5 starting offset at 35mm front and 18x9.5 37mm rear, basically will there be a problem that when I put these wheel on I won't have enough stud to get the wheel nice and secure?, hope i will have enough, what you guys think
front will be end up 25mm and rear is 27mm or 32mm if i put 5mm spacer which i think the rear will have no problem on the stud
