Thread: 15x7 +40 fitment

anyone running a 15x7 with 40 offset? i dont have the wheels or car here, but im trying to make sure im not going to have any fitment problems. thanx

I have Konig Rewinds in 15x7 +40.

I have 205/50/15 Falken Ziex 512s on them.

I have to run a 5mm spacer on the wheels in the back to clear the strut body. That is with AGX/Hypercos.

HTH...

damn i was hoping i had enough room. im running stock struts with cg coilovers.

with ground controls, cut the stock spring perch out or cut it down and you will have room.

my issue wasn't the perch it was the body itself.

Brent, w/o a spacer you clear the AGX body?

How much room?

It all depends on the manufacturer. Not all 15X7 40mm are the same. I can testify to that although there will be one person who will debate me to death with tech mombojumbo that it is impossible to be different. I clearly had 2 different 40mm wheels on a car and one cleared and one did not.

I have 15x6.5 40+offset with 205/50 R15 tires. I had no problems putting them on and I can make u turns with the wheel fully turned and no rubbing.

If that helps any.

I run GR-2s with progress springs........bash me for my set up xP......ksports coming soon.

quality control is never 100% unless your buying volk/rays wheels. i can completely under stand minor differances in "cheaper" wheels, not saying you buy cheap ass stuff.......but i doubt your spending $500+ per wheel....if you are...stop lol)

also, were you useing the same tires on both sets? and how long between switching wheels? things shift on cars.......you could have had a bad bushing, or replaced a bushing, hell even doing an alignment can change wheel clearance.
