    around 15x8 0 to 15x8 -4 rims with 195/50R15s or 195/45R15 tyres will fit sweet.

    That said I have 15x9 -2 on my rear and they are only rolled

    I'm actually quite surprised how big you can go with stock guards...

    Compared to all other cars, KE70's, ae86 and even ae82 etc, they got some pretty big flares!

    i tend to agree with delazy...

    you need to provide more details when you ask questions, don't get me wrong asking any question is perfectly fine, but asking a such a question without giving any extra information, you can't expect good answers.

    similar to asking how long a piece of string is

    yes it might have been a good idea to have a search around as well, there are times when asking the same question is ok SO LONG as you provide enough information to the forum to explain EXACTLY what you want to know with as much details as possible.


    from my time looking around this place, 14/15 x 8 with +10-0 (between +10 and zero) offset is about as "big" as you want to go on stock guards, assuming its lowered to suit the wheels. also depends on the tyres as well. with reasonable sized tyres (ie no bulge, nice and flat, no stretch necessarily) they should fit in nicely.

    you would want to have relatively stiff springs as the wheels will sit quite close to the guards, prolly get some scrubbage over those nasty pot-holes we all know about.

    ps: don't write in capitals (in your title), doesn't really help at all, will prolly keep people out of your thread :2thumbs:

    Wheel fitment has a bout a thousand variables, best to trial fit some of your mates rims and take note of their sizes to get an idea of what you can run.
