    low offset slips

    i saw on their website they have +20 offset slipstreams in 15x7.5,
    is there anyone on ephatch who has those rims?
    im tryin to get the flushed look,ive seen some who tried the 15x8/16x8 +15 sportmax 501's ,but the wheel still sticks out a bit,


    the steel gray is the low offset one

    i think it's gonna stick out too much. if you're not drop, you might be fine. i am dropped and i have 16x7 +40 slips and my front ones rub on hard cornering. just the fender liner though. if you really want it, go for it.

    i know the guy who has the 16x8 +15 offset sportmax 501's,and the front sticks out a bit and rears cambered to fit. i just thought that it's half an inch less and +20 offset,it'll be a little more flushed,

    my rear fenders are rolled already,

    1 inch - 25.4mm, stock offset is 45 with a 6 1/2 inch rim, the best offset for a 7 inch rim is 42-43mm

    hey how many inches are you lowered by and what tire size are you running for you to rub on hard cornering?

    205/55/16 isnt that bad. it's just the fender liner. it can get very irritating though. but if you just use it in the streets, i guess you'll be fine. but don't quote me on that. i don't know how hard you drive and it also depends on your struts. if they're soft, they will surely make your tires rub during body roll.
