As I found out with Topper the S15's they don't like big wheels with the standard wings, so thought I would show you what can be done with the old fashion S14a

20's with no arch mods pow :D (ps they are only on just to see if they would fit ok)

I think 18" looks good on S15s However i haven't seen a nice set of 19" on one yet. Only SUV style chromies. And they look bad in any size on a sports car.
Would like to see how a set of 19" sporty wheels looks on the s15. :)

Me.. I'd just be happy with some SSR Integral A1s.... they are sexy as hell.. .but can't find them anymore... :(
Hmm. I have a set lying around in my garage :p

Not planning on selling them though. But who knows. If I get my S15 sold and find another one with nice rims on it I might reconsider.

Offset at the front for 19 x 8.5 is +40, running 235/35/ZR19

Offset at rear for 19 x 10 is either +45 or +50 ... I will double check soon - running 265/30/ZR19

no spacers, and guards not even rolled or lipped :cool: , D2 coilovers with no added camber on the rear - just lowered which gives natural camber increase - no rubbing or scrubbing :thumbs:
 

Nicely

Moving on...

So running quite a bit of negative? Don't think they'd fit if you straightened it :no: Looks god though. Just hope you don't go through the tyres :)

Mine's a right b@stard with 18x8.5 offset +32 running 255s. Rear arches are rolled, alignment sorted. To get any lower I'll have to flare the arches.
