Looking to get a set with tires. Was wondering if anyone knows if it will clear my stock calipers.
18" x 7.5". +42 offset. Will it look too sunken in? Will i need spacers? I skimmed through the flush fitment thread and I'm not sure if i came across fitment for ST205. (at work and can't search too much) I'm okay if it's sunken in, as I can deal with that later. I just don't want to drive 50+ km to get rims that won't clear my calipers. Thanks!

I THINK they'll barely clear the calipers because the 7gc gts is 16x7 with +43 offset. My specs might be off. Lol.

I had a set of 17" SSR Evolution Decoltes on mine and they cleared the caliper fine with +42 offset

When said about modification I didn't mean the ones made by man. What I said was that it might have modified after being affected by a certain force. |

crap, just noticed you said st205.
They cleared my twin pots with room to spare, not sure about 4 pot but sounds like ILoveMySilly97 may be right -------------------- QUOTE (madbeardo @ Mar 27, 2013 - 8:17 PM)

Had 7 st205s and my rule of thumb is 35p offset minimum, anything greater looks ugy sunken in. Even 35 isnt wonderful but looks reasnable

The rears didn't need them but i have some bolt on spacers coming to make them a bit more flush. -------------------- |
