Back in the day I ran 16 x 7.5 rims with 225/40/16s, Dia 23.08 on my SER. The front fit fine and the back I had to run a spacer and role the fender just a bit. I do not remember the offset.


What I do know is the NX2000 has a little more space in the rear than the SER.

I will be running Volk TE37s on my NX2000. They should be 17 x 7.5 with 40mm offset. After looking at Happynoles car with 15 x 8 with 36mm offset, I can say 17 x 7.5 with the same offset as Happynole's rims, it would give me 1/4 (6.35mm) in more space on both sides of the rim, thats a plus already. Also if I run a 40mm offset instead of 36mm offset. I will have 10mm more clearance on the fender side at 2mm more clearance on the shock side over Happynole. This will allow me to put a spacer in just incase the tire gets to close to the shock.

On my SER right now I have 205/40/17s (Dia 23.4) on 38mm offset 17 x 7 wheel. The rear rim has a 3/8 in ( 9.5 mm ) spacer not becasue the tire was rubbing but because I wanted to match the look from front to rear as far as fender clearance as the front wheel always appears to stick out more than the rear wheel. With that spacer both wheels look even.

I have these under the hood parts SR20VE motor, flywheel, clutch, header, Calum Realtime, Maxima MAF, JWT Pop filter, N1 intake manifold.

Suspension stuff Whiteline under brace, Rear strut tower brace and 10.1 rear rotor and Caliper.



Still need to get N1 cams, Springs and Retainers

Still need to get front 11 brakes, front strut bar, 225/35/17 tires, Volk TE37, Shock, Springs and Sway bars

Please be more specific. Was it an NX2000 or SER. Knowing the wheel offset would help.

I assume it is an NX2000 because I dont think that is posible on a SER.
