Best rim size

[iApex]

i am looking to buy new rims and was just wondering what size everyine is running. im looking at some budddy club wheels that are 15x6.5 with a 35mm offset. i will just use these to get me by untill i can afford another set of wheels that i will put some 225 R compounds on. and then the buddy club wheels will just my my dd wheels. any input on the matter would be great... THX

15x7 +42 FN01R-C's with 205/50 RA-1's

That wouldn't be a bad route to go. 15x6.5 is enough wheel for 205/50's. Then you can step up to 7.5's or 8's for the 225's.

15x8" 949Racing wheels (either a 205 or 225 will fit fine on them)

If you don't want to roll your fenders then go for the 15x7.5" wheels.

Thanks guys. the 949 wheels are the ones i plan to put some R compounds on down the road.

I have been trying to decide if i should go with the 15x6.5 +35 or the 15x6.5 +40. Will i rub on one of them? what is the actual difference in handling with the two offsets? turn in and ETC. or is that tire dependent? Thanks.

You can get decent, cheap 15x7's so why not get those now....unless you are hung up on Buddy Club wheels

if that is the case call Apex Motorsports/UMS Tuning they are a vendor on here and can get Buddy club or just about any other wheel and tire you want.

[BlueTeg]

15x8 for a track wheel (225 width)

15x7 for a wheel that has daily driver duty plus occasional track time. (205 if you don't want to rub or roll your fenders)

[iApex]

i cant find any decent 15x7.. websites or suggestions would be great.

Kosei
SSR
Enkei
Rota

All make a number of 15x7 wheels, just depends on what look you're going for and how much you have to spend.

Just get the 15x7 949 wheels . Then, sell the 15x7's to upgrade to 15x7.5's or 15x8's when you need track only wheels.

[iApex]

well see theres more to it i bought the car with 16's on it, that i dont want. Eventually i want 2 sets of wheels. A set i can use as daily drivers, and then the 949's with the nitto n1's. but before i buy the set of wheels that im going to make a dedicated set of track wheels (949's with nitto's} i want to have a set of daily driver 15's. so they are the same size.

Depends usually what you want to run, but if your not restricted by rules run the lightest, smallest, wide-est wheels you can fit under the fenders
