Help with wheel sizes and offset
I'm in the market for a set of Rota Grid-V rims for my slightly lowered AE86.
But I'm not quite sure on what offset to go though.

I wanna stick with 15" rims I think and I'm looking for a bit of that drifter look with dished rims and stretched tires. Not over the top just a bit.

My question is what J-value and offset should I go with? As I haven't done anything to my arches and I obviously don't want tyre scrubbing.

And then i would have to run 195 wide tires to get that stretched look right?

Awesome! I think 8J et0 will be exactly what I want then.

Anyone else with pic's like the ones from BUDA?
Might be good info for others as well to see how the different values actually look.

XXR 002 are 15x8 ET0 and I always use 195/50/15 tires. Sometimes on trackdays I run 195/55/15 in the back to adjust top speed / gear ratios.
Slightly rolled/hammered fenders.
