As the title said i planning to buy xxr 501 wheels 15 offset. But i want to have owner opinion about handling , suspension feeling and any damage( like bearing or knuckle broken.) And also if anyone have look as the suspension motion ratio.

I explaine myself with low offset the wheel leverage about the inboard lower control arm pivot increase while the suspension spring ;everage remain constant, that cause a reduction in effective spring rate so you need stiffer spring.

So i just want to have your opinion guys

thx

i got those and its going to make your turn radius a little worser. wont turn as much as it used to be. gives you a nice stance and so far my bearings are not F up yet so thats good. need to camber the rears and roll the fenders to fit tho.

not sure how much camber in the back but its not too bad tho. i also rolled my rears so that helped out a little. dont put on these rims if you do not plan to drop cuz it s gonna be fN ugly
