my car currently has 17in momo racers with not good offset and i just so happen to have 6 riken mesh wheels i have 2 which are 15x7 o offset and black i also have 4 gold rikens 14x6.5 +10

so my plan was to take two of the GOLD rikens(14x6.5 +10) on the fronts and paint it black...how flush will that size be... and then the blacks will be mounted(15x7 0 offset) on the back... same question how flush will that be

they'll both sit pretty close to the fenders, the 15x7"+0 will sit closer to the fender than the 15x6.5"+10 will though. You'll need to roll your fenders also. I'd recommend 195/55 up front and 205/55 in the rears... or you can just go with the same tire sizes all around.

black pair already has a good set of tires... what size tire do you recommend dor the 6.5... and your saying that the 14x6.5 + 10 rikens will stick out farther on the front of my car than the 15x7 0 offset will on the back of my car (how noticeable do you think that will be)

^^ no... I said the opposite of that.

14x6.5+10 will sink in more than the 15x7+0.

I'd say its about a 10-15mm difference.
