I currently have 17x7.5 +40 Lenso rims, and have been relatively happy with them, until last week I popped a flat tyre, pulled it off and found that the whole inside sidewall of the tyre has ripped through. Have I hit the tyre on my strut tower? I did the calcs and found that my rims sit 14mm closer to the suspension than stock.

The rims I was looking at are the Rota Grid V's, 16x8 +20, as pictured here: http://www.rotaaustralia.com.au/rota-gridv-16-8-4x100mm-et20-bronze-single-rim_p23280597.htm

Would these fit fairly easily? I'm not too fussed about getting my guards rolled or having minorly stretched tyres, but I don't really want to do anything too major.

My current rims sit like so: http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/406948_4435932690149_994102954_n.jpg

Any help/advice/suggestions/beratings would be appreciated, cheers.

Did you hear any rubbing? What are the other tyres condition like?

I have rubbing on the front left on my guards, but I have to fix my suspension on that side. I didn't hear any rubbing from the one I popped though, but I was not exactly listening for rear rubbing, so I can't really say. But what I do know is that my current rims are 16 mm closer to my suspension than stock rims, so I just figured that is what happened.

I don't think 16mm would be that big of a deal TBH.

Rear running you would certainly hear IMO, it's very loud.

I'm clueless :(

I am running 16x8 +25 and it fits fine with guards rolled and pulled. There is a member on here with 15x9 +20something using standard camber arms on his eg so it can be done

Yeah okay that's reassuring. I've found the rims I'm going to get, they're brand new work meister replicas for $600 a set, 15x7 +20 which will fit like so: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2562/4009952289_35d3170134.jpg

What tire would I run on that? This is the first time I've changed a pair of rims/tyres or anything so I'm completely in the dark haha. I'm assuming 205/215, but I don't really know about profile and stuff, so help would be appreciated.
