Sorry to lower the tone but in lay mans terms - I have std vr4 (pre-facelift) with std 5 spoke wheels. Car not lowered.
Will any 5 stud rim fit?
I am after 17" rims but what is the offset about?

you want 5 stud wheels witha 114.3mm pcd
most wheels with offsets between 35 and 45 will fit, just have a look at the wheels everyone else is running
There doesnt seem to be many wheels (ebay) with 114.3 pcd, does any other car take this size??
Although i have the std vr4 alloys, the tyres are 205/55/16. Is this about right for the outside circunference.
To match this according to the calculator, i will need either 205/50/17 or 205/40/18.
From anyones experience, does a 17" rim make much difference visually from a 16" or should i be going for a 18" rim.
most 5 stud japanese cars excluding subaru are 5x114.3.
The standard size is indeed 205/55/16. A common upgrade size is 225/45/17 as well as 225/40/18. You don't need to stick with 205 wide tyres at all!
My car is on 17's, check out my gallery by clicking on my name and going to view my car, it looks fine on 17's! More important is lowering the car, especially at the front.
Do any one know 18x9 234/40 tyres with a offset 35 or 38 fit legnum ?
you will need to roll the rear guards, but you should be ok
cheers bradc
Will 17x9" with +28 offset fit?

Cheers Brad...............thought as much. /GrrrQuote:

I definitely keep the second setting, more confortable by miles. Now just waiting for my Eibach Pro Kit that is already ordered.
I have just fitted Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 17x7.5 37mm offset with 225/45 tyres.
Rear fits perfectly, front sticks out from the side of the arch/bodywork by about 2cm, but does not rub even on large bumps.
Do anyone think that 19x8 with 40 offset would fit?
Just ordered a round cos were cheap???
Facelift and stock...

How low can it go before these mods need doing?
Isn't that the one in the Articles section that Gly wrote up?
So 35mm or 46mm for 18x8 on a PFL sedan? :rolleyes3 :rolleyes3
Both of those are pushing it. You really want about 40mm for a PFL
I'm not fussed about guard rolling, if that makes a difference. More fussed about wheels hitting suspension though ;)
Mine are 17x8.5 with a 45mm offset and I really wish I'd gone for less as the fronts protrude slightly, especially with the thicker bells on the KAD brakes.
Wouldn't less offset mean the wheels protrude further out? :dizzy2:
