Local guy is selling a set of Bronze Rota Grids. They are 15x8 4x100 bolt pattern. The tires that are on them are 195/50/r15 Falken Ziex ZE-912's.

My ep is dropped on progress springs, 1.5 in front and 1.8 in back (I believe)

Think these will fit without any rubbing issues since I'm not super low?

Thanks!

the tires are fine, the width of the wheel might be problematic as there is not much clearance between the wheel and the strut body on the front end.

See if you could test fit the front wheels before buying and check for clearance.

Yea the trick is going to be the wheel offset which you do not mention. It will need to be somewhat lower than normal.

Just met the guy, wheels are MINT. Only question is fitment... I'd hate to get them home and they rub. Anyone?

Yea I've decided not to go with them anyways, I don't want the same size wheel I already have.

Got the guy to 400$. Tires and wheels have less that 5k miles... I take the risk of them rubbing though. What y'all think?

Finally thank you!!! I have only ran one set of wheels on this car so I'm not very knowledgeable. I'll just wait it out and buy some 16's.
