Wheel size question
Hey guys, need info for both gemini and piazza so will be posting in both forums.
but.
I want to buy 16 INCH WHEELS WITH 4X100 BOLT PATTERN. THE FOUR ARE 7J(WIDTH) WITH +38OFFSET
wheels will be coming form japan :roll: but they are ALOT cheaper than new and an inch up from what I was gonna buy.
but what i need to know is, wil they scrub or hit the shocks whilst lifted on a gemini at that width? and also need to know for piazza?
I think geminis are supposed to be a +38 offset so yeah... tried to do a search but got topics on 20's under a gemini and 14inch camira rims which is in no way what I wanted lol.
thanks to anyone that helps.

My car stopped leaking oil, does that mean I'm out?

I thought spacers were wrong/illegal/bad lol...
i mean i have em on the gemini atm but there are so many other illegal things on it that it really doesnt matter haha!!
anyone in australia able to clarify the legalites with spacers?
and anyone else tried fitting x7 wheels with +38 offset to a pizza and gotten away with it?

i tried a 17" rim at a tyre place with no tyre and it touched the shock in the air and it was 7 wide but not shure about the offset, the guy said when it was wheel and tyre shoping time to come back and we would measure the off set and have a look at the range he had.
Maybe go to a wheel and tyre place and give them the impression that you want to by and get them to fit some wheels to the car to see what fits and at the end of it just tell them u want to have a think about the style you want, probably go back and get the tyres from them later coz of the favoure they will do you

Ive got 15x7's on my Piazza and they are +24.
With 195 wide tyres they clear the shockers jacked right up in the air. The clear by about 3mm.
You will need +24 or lower or you will have drama.
You cant go much lower or else you will have trouble with the rear wheels scrubbing the edge of the rear guards. Ive got 205/60/15's on the back and they sit in nicely.
When im moving the car in the next two days i will get some pics and have a better look. I really do want to get 8's under the back of my car. ive got some stockie 4x100 14" rims off a jap car and i want to put those centres in the 8" rims ive got here off a falcon. Ditto with 15" rims and the 7" holden interceptors and the 8" sunraysiers.
Cheers. Rob.

Too many Piazzas to little money.
