What offset/tire size?

I have a 1988 GTU. I'm looking to get 16x7 inch wheels. What tire size and offset should I run?

stock 89+ t2 rims look the best.

I would run a 16,8 or 7.5 all the way around. If you're looking for that size I'd go with the suggestion above. Get a series V T2 wheel. Those are extremely lightweight and a perfect fitment.

Really depends on what your function is but I'd put 7's up front and 8's or 8.5's in the rear. I'd go with the Kosei K1 in a 16,7.5 and 8.5 for the FC.

Otherwise as a general rule you can do +35 to +40, +35 being the better of the two in a 7" width.
