really depends on sus setup (height, std/coilover, camber, castor, etc) but if all std just a couple inches lower.

Width 7 and offset close to 0* offset (+/-4mm) should be sweet all around and safe as houses. But max I've seen...

F:14x7.5 R: 14x8* with 185/60R14
(maybe 14x8 -10, 14x8.5 -13 rolled)

F:15x7.5 R:15x8* with 195/50R15
(but up to 15x8.5 -6, 15x9 -2 rolled)

Kona will probably back me up on this :yeah: also see this thread (http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/showthread.php?t=645)

I have standard guards (just lipped) 15x9-6 with a 195/50 not scrubbing. and its only about 1 inch outside the guardseach side, but the tyre is inside

depends on how low and how much camber.


legal low you can get away with 14x8 0 offset or 14x7 -13 offset.

crazy low you can get away with 14x7 0 offset.

if your doing 15's you might aswell have rolled guards


cut the inners of your guards out if you want stock looking guards but more room.

i had 14x8 -15 and xt130 lca's tucking tyre under stock guards, didn't rub at all going straight over bumps but i couldn't turn without the tyre rubbing the top of the guard. if yours is higher you'll get away with that size easy
