Offset help!!!

[dmad_dood]

Hey guys im trying to buy rims but am wondering how much offset i can go.

Got an ek1 with coilovers and my wheels are just in the guards as is.

I want to go 15's, for refernce does anyone no what the stock steelies offset are and what offset flush is. Not looking to do guard work or anything just want to no what offset i can run without any trouble :p

Thanks!

i have 15x8 25+ but that is with guards rolled. that sits pretty flush.

Depends on the width of your desired rim mate, as well as your tyre choice.

Dunno what offset steelies are but im pretty sure their width are like 6inch or 6.5inch correct me if i'm wrong guys.
And to answer your flush question, i'm running on 15x7 +38 on 195/50 and it sits flush with no guard roll and roadworthy, only thing that pokes out is the centrecaps. But if i go too low i'll end up scrubing.
any offset lower then +30 on a 7inch width wheel will probably require guard roll to sit flush
