Staggered Offset wheels

5x114.3

15x7 +35 offset
15x7.5 +30 offset

if these arent ek9 fitment, what should i ideally be looking for. what would happen if the offsets were slightly off anyways?

-too much offset and the wheel will sit in too much.
-too little or negative offset and the wheel will stick out of the fender.

both will look ugly, so you need the right offset, mine is 15x7 +43 offset iirc and it looks almost perfect on my car...

what blinx said, mine TE37's are 16x7 + 42 iirc:nice:
 
so these wheels are a no go then? shame, cause i really love the wheels.

Could the offset be altered by spacers? what would happen if i added some big camber eventually, a wheel that sits right as standard may not look quite so good as the angle gets bigger? am i right?

nope, wrong, adding negative camber is hardly visable, if its to the point yoru wheels sit in too much you either have the wrong offset wheels for your application or you have way too much negative camber.
 
These would have fitted no problem!!!!!

Next time, go on google, and type in wheel offsset calculator.

Pitty, those specs would have looked **** hot!

Agreed.

The 15x7.5 +30 offset would have gone on the front with a little negative camber and it would fill the fenders quite nicely and look very aggressive. With a 225/45/15 tire, it would have been great!

the +35s would have went in the rear, although they would have probably been better depending on setup if they were at least +38 or even +42. Too much width in the rear can hurt rotation. Although a 195/55/15 tire would work well with 7.0in. wide wheel.
