i'm eyeing these 15" rims and thinking of putting 205/15/50 on them with kumho estra supra 712. my question is... since this rim is a 40mm offset... will it rub? cuz on my 16 that i had before with 205/50 it rubbed like a mofol... and my car wasn't even lowered. i know it could have been the tires... but if i get 15" with 40mm and then dropping it later on... will i suffer the same fate of rubbing?

 

get a 43 offset and you should be better off

 

You should be fine. Having 205/50/15's are completely different than having 205/50/16's.

 

what about the offsets? would it be alright with the 40mm offset on a 15"?

 

how wide of a wheel? thats what makes the difference

 

the wheels are 15x 6.5

 

you should be entirely fine with a 40 offset then. reccomended for a 7" wide is 42-44mm

 

oh ok... i'll keep that in mind.

 

make sure you get a 50 size. You should have gotten a 45 size for your 16s. I bet your speedo and RPM was all out of wack

 

yup.. when i had the 16" my speedo was out of wack... plus they were hella heavy... which make my d16y8 feel like crap. they were the ADR GT sports... and they were heavy as hell. as for the 50series... the peeps at discount tires direct said it's perfect for the rim... and since i didn't know much back then... i got tricked into it. anyway... now, i am thinking of either 15" or 16". so far i've only found the 15" gunmetal buddy clubs that i liked. but for the 16", i've have yet to find one that i like. so.... most likely i'll go with the buddy club...
