Celica Forums General Discussion Engine and Performance 5zigen MK5 43+offset

Hi,

I am planning to get a set of 17x7 5zigen MK5. offset +43. Tires 215/45/17.

Will I have any problem such as fender rub?

I've seen this rim in person, but I never seen it on a Celica. Anyone have any pic of it on a Celica? BTW I have 2002 celica.

Any comment or help would be appreciated

Thanks

it'll fit fine, just make sure its 5x100

i have 5 zigen inperio, same offset, it's not flush though. i would want it to be. there is no rubbing.

Thanks for your pics and info!

What's happening with you and the cop car?

the cop is an escort. we were on a cruise out across town the main meet and had escort. there about 30 more cars behind me following

cool, btw, I am from Vancouver too.

a mini cooper cop

You do realize that going +43 offset, it will sink into your fender even more then stock? You'll never rub on the outer fender, even if you drop the car 4", cause the whole thing is closer to the inner fender then anything. You want to get something that's like +38 to +30 range if you want to bring the wheel out more so its flush with the body.

I see, so +30 is max I should go to prevent rubbing.
