Here is a picture of our Protege with our 18's on it. I love the way it sits, it's just perfect.

rubbing
no rubbing, I dont know exactly what my alighnment specs are but I know the tow was out alot, but it got fixed when I did the alighnment.

im a newbie... what is the offset of the factory wheels?
and what is the bolt pattern? 114.3 x 5 lug? thanks. |
If I remember correctly the offset +50 but the rim is only 6inches wide.
the bolt pattern you mentionned if the correct one. |
thanx sedanman! :)
|
So from reading all this....it seams like a +45 will BARELY clear in the rear. And a +47 will fit perfect. Is this right? With such a high offset like 47, is there any clearance problems on the inside against the strut? I need to know the EXACT offset needed to tuck a 18x7.5 OR a 19x7.5. My wheel company said they could mill them down to what ever i needed before they shipped them. Im going to be running airbag struts by the end of March and will be tucking the CRAP out of my wheels, so i need to know the offset BEFORE i order my wheels.

very nice.....love how they look :D
