Is this the right size for 02 cars?

Size 15x6 with 35mm offset, 4x100 bolt pattern

Hi Chris.

With all due respect, this forum is equipped with a "SEARCH" function that will help you get the info you want on this beaten-to-death subject. I am not trying to be unfriendly, simply helping the webmaster to reduce unncessary bandwidth paid from his pocket.

Thanks for understanding.

Simply enter "Wheel offset"

I've been running 15x7 et28 Nardi BBSs for years w/ 205/50's w/ nice tightly rolled fender lips. I only put 1/8 spacers in the front when one of the wheels got bent enough to hit the tie rod end. I got them straightened but they had to have a little shaved off the hub to get them fully straight. That's with H&Rs and Konis too.

My Dad's tii had ATS Cups in 15x7 et20 w/ 205/50's w/ rolled lips and non lowered since the early 80's. He's since gone back to his old 13x6 et15 Chromodora Dino's w/ 205/60-13s for the more period look and better ride.

I don't have much real experience w/ 15's other than 15x7's.

For 15x7's I do know that with nicely rolled fender lips the best offset for 15x7's to fit 205's is et24 to et26 as ideal! 15x6 or 15x6.5's I do not know the ideal offset.

CJ's group purchase on Rota 15x7's et25 is the ideal setup to use 205/50's w/o flares!

Hey Charley, the 15 x 6's et29 are Panasports. I do have rolled lips on the fenders and a lot of negative camber up front (-2 degrees). No photos at this time, but if you send me an email, I will send you some photos.

Good Luck,

Mike (#87)
