> [@Stock240](#): > > What size is everybody running on what size rims and offset. Help me out. 😃 I’m running 15x7 +22, they look flush. What exactly are you asking? I just did a search on this site and I see at least 5 or 6 threads on this exact subject. Since I have these handy, here. Next time, search.

The people who use spacers I want to know what size spacers with what offset wheels. Wasn’t that hard. I understand offset. Low offset wheels R very hard to find. Not to mention more money I want to spend. ---

Spacers are a piss poor way to get proper offset. If you can, buy the size you want right drom the start. 17x9 +15 are uber flush…go buy some. ---

Also, as you may already be aware, 5mm’s should work on stock studs and help a little, more than that and you’ll want longer wheel studs. You will likely find spending the extra on wheels and tires that fit worth it, but it really is up to you. Good luck dude, post pics when everything’s done! ---

Use a ruler and your stock wheels (or whatever you have on your car) as a guideline and you will be able to figure out how flush they will be. [www.raretrick.com](http://www.raretrick.com) has a deal on low offset 17x8/9/9.5 Uras NS-01 wheels right now…that would be my choice for cheap, low offset, decent looking wheels. ---
