not usually a flamer but this thread is ghey
if you dont understand this much its probably time to choose a new hobby
Thats pretty harsh mate, but im not gonna find help anywhere else. (sorry im a newbie, gota learn some how)
This is more to satisfy my curiosity... but I still dont get why putting 195s on on say 15x6 and 15x7 makes a diff? In the end isnt it the tyre width that affects overall width (and the look)?
So 195s are a good match for 15x7?
I agree...this thread is ghey.
I have driven an AE86 with factory power steering, and it honestly isn't a great deal lighter than no power steering.
Things that can make steering harder:
Lots of track (to a certain degree, it isn't a linear relationship)
Lots of castor
Small steering wheel
heavier brakes
heavier wheels
tyres too wide for rim (eg. 205 on a 6" rim)
underinflated tyres
0 camber
Lots of toe in
I suggest building up your arm muscles, or attempt your slower speed manoevers at higher speeds!

What about spacers.. Someone said that for 15x7s to be on your car you require spacers and to pump your guards.. Is that right?
another one who thinks this thread is laughable
Depends on the offset dude.
So what would be the minimum offset before spacers are required? Ive tried searching the info out on the site, but Its not as easy as it looks..
I know these are noobish Questions to be Asking.. But If I dont ask Ill never know..
ok rather than laugh and make jokes ill give u my info i have learnt... guys give him a break, before your toyota days i doubt you knew this either so stop being dickhead know-it-all gurus.
i have 15 x 6.5 inch r31 skyline wheels on my car, i run 8mm spacers or the wheels rub on the strut, buy yourself some 8mm spacers and see how much gap ypu have, my guards have been flared also, but i still have heaps of room anyways. tyres are 195/60/r15's, anything bigger and your wasting your time.
on my rear i have same rims with 205/65/r15's and they fit with no spacers, the tyres are ghey but might as well thrash them before putting 195s on.
result, buy yourself some 8mm spacers mate and 195 60 tyres and you should be fine, my car is lowered with rolled guards too, but i reckon you should be fine without it
good luck, Dave
thanks for the info.. one last dumb question is where can I buy the spacers from..
