15x8 end all questions

[Split]

you guys are crazy.. you want to be running the HIGHEST offset possible because that's what this car is set-up for. If you're doing a 15x8, you'll want at least a +40 offset. if you run a high enough offset, you might even be able to get away with running a 225 width tire.. like a 225/45R15. Or if you want that stretched look you can run a 215/50R15. <- that's about as far as you can safely stretch onto a 15x8.

incredible amount of misinformation

also, the op isnt actually asking for what the widest he can run is, he wants to know how aggressively he can make his wheels fit.

thank you guys and im starting to second guess the 15x8+0 rims cuz I dont want to have to blow money to pull and roll fenders and shit or have to have too much negative camber and have to replace tires once a year so i think ill be going with the 15x8+15 as it sounds like that wheel wont cause as many problems. and Im not going high offset or wide tires.

15X8 + 20 is cheap.. and no herpeMAX XXR wheels.

Adejong's "fitment" of 15X7 +35 front and +25 rear is perfect if you don't want to roll fenders. I run 15X7 +37 front, +24 rear without rolled fenders. If the my fronts were +35 it would be better looking. If the rear were +25 i don't think i would rub when i hit bumps.

I originally got deleted for calling out Split and his misinformation; i had to "simplify" my response. I guess admin actually read the post and are letting the people handle it now.

As claimed ealier in the thread:

I don't want to seem as if I'm fueling the flame here, but if we're going to nip misinformation in the butt, I figured I'd point this out. Obviously Tamago since you've seen Enth's car run, you can chime in as to whether or not there's any issues with his fitment and auto-x runs?

it's kimona, who likes to keep us in the dark about what kimona considers "cookie cutter" fitment.

apparently it's a sore spot..

i have no idea what you guys are even talking about right now lol

[marlondog]

Here's what I'm talking about. The front wheels have a +30 offset and the rears +17.

bottom line...

do what you have to do. 0 offset on an 8" wheel is gonna poke.

20 offset with 8" is gonna poke with a "proper" sized tire.

you're out to build a showqueen with stretched tires. why are you even on yarisworld asking questions? go to herra-frush dot cawm. stretch it, poke it, make it look stupiid, rub, ruin tires, all in the name of being herrafrush. .. . .


if you're sensible though, stick to 7" wide wheels and nothing lower than a 20 offset out back and 30 offset up front. enjoy being able to turn your car without destroying your fenders.

[yarisugi]

I built a show queen. =P

For reference: -REAR- 15x8.5" +13 offset = 1.75" poke out of stock fender (no pull or roll)

[1.5]

yarisgui what are you running in the front?

[yarisugi]

15x7.5 + 13 on front

edit: I realize now that you have a sedan.

Here is a picture of 15x8 on a sedan for reference, (I think +15 offset). You can see how much it pokes out the fender.



This isn't a Yaris, but another 4-door (EF Civic), with 15x8 +15 for reference.



I hope the pics help. Good luck on your build.
