  • 14x6 +25 offset Will they work?

    I've tried searching for a half hour or so and I couldn't exactly answer my question. I bought what I thought were Isuzu Impulse wheels which online all I could find was the offset listed as high without a number. However, when I got them home and took a look at them, they have 25 on them and based on the backpacing and using a backspace to offset calculator, they are +25. I'm doing an Aspire brake swap with the Festiva struts at stock height and plan on installing 155/65/14's and I think I'll have fender clearance issues. Plus I don't want it to look like a roller skate. Any insight on this?

    You may want some negative camber to get them into the fenders, but they should fit. I'm refinishing a set of 14x7 O.Z. Turbine wheels that are eT25 and they fit fine with 165/55-14 tires. I've got over 3 degrees negative camber on all 4 corners though. You won't need nearly that much. Probably 1.5 degrees negative will work, and improve your cars stability.
    Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

      Cool, thanks. I'll give them a shot.
