16" wheel fitment help!

[vinbon63]

Hey everyone, I am trying to get my hands on some wheels sized 16x7 front, and 16x8 rear and the offset is +38 all around. Im pretty sure I shouldnt have any problems right? I am lowered on neuspeed sports and my fenders are stock (not rolled). Any help would be great! Thanks.

Thank you jhoff_cb7! I always like getting that reassurance.

If the offset were zero than it'll be a little different other than that its good to go

Not exactly, no...zero offset = bye bye wheel bearings

16x8" +38 in the rear is okay, depending on ride height, tire size and rear camber...I don't know how much Neuspeed sports lower your car by, so I can't exactly picture anything at the moment..If you run 205/50/16 you should be fine, as the tires will be a little stretched...Any bigger than that and you MIGHT rub a little...But then, if you're not doing anything to your camber (No washer trick, no aftermarket camber kit), then as jhoff_cb7 said, I think you'll be just fine

the truth is, +0 offset wheels are to hard to run on a dd car
thats why jake has a dd cb7 that he drives.
he doesnt drive the jerk mobile too much

beemers run +15 from the factory so 0 offset on an older beemer isnt really anything.

same as going from +50 to +38

For sure! But running +0 with cars that run +50 from the factory is definitely a different story I think I'm honestly worried about my current setup..Heck, my friends are already putting money on how long my front wheel bearings are going to last! Some say 6 months, some say 1 year, some say less than 6 months...Let's hope that they are all wrong!! I highly doubt it though...
