Backspace For 92 Es300 Factory Rims


lex

Recommended Posts

I want to get wider rims so that it looks flush with the body, instead of the recessed factory look. Someone said to make sure that the backspace of the new rims are close to the factory rims or else I will get rubbing.

I am thinking of 17 inch rims. with 215/50/17 tires? This tire diameter is very close to the 205/65/15 stock diameter. So should I get 17x7 rims?

Would the the 7 in. width make the wheels flush with the body?

I've got 215/50-17s on 17 x7's (see my sig below). I'm pretty sure the offset on my rims is between +40 and +43, and they're just inside the fenderwell, the tuck is almost identical to the stock rims on a friend's IS300. No rubbing, etc, issues whatsoever.
