Offset for rims?
Yeah I'm finally taking the plunge and buying some aftermarket rims...Ive rolled on my stockers for so long, I need something new. I've looked for the perfect rims for years and I finally found them. My question is this, Will a +38 offest let the tire tuck like my stock rims? I dont want ANY rubbing. Im buying 15's and Im not telling you what kind Im getting until I have pics of them on the car....just know that before I left, I had NEVER seen them on a car in person. So yeah, theres my question, How does a +38 offset compare to my stockers????
Oh and NOBODY whore out my thread making offers for my stock Si rims unless you have a good answer to my question....or at least point me in the right direction....

Should be fine since they are 15s I would usually look for 34+ or 32. Im not 100% on it though hopfully sombody sheds some light on this because I wanna know also

Sweet ass. Now my second question. The stock si rims are 15 x 7 right? The ones im getting are 15 x 7.5 but they say that 195 width tires ares till ok for the rim....im wondering how true that is.

I think stock Si are 6.5 but yeah 7.5 would be fine not positive on tire sizes was never good at that I just asked the guys at the tire shop what would be best fit and they always hook me up right. I always wanted them to be a little bit beefy tires but not over beefy and thats all she wrote lol
