Im stuck before I order wheels trying to figure out fitment.

Im ordering a set of wheels andd they come in a

15x7 with a -6

or

15x8 with a -19

trying to figure out what addition supsension parts I would want to make this fit. I want to run lowering springs(tein most likely) and my "newer" struts.

I have almost mint 205/60/15s on my current wheels and want to just swap them over which is why I didnt +1.

thinking the -19s would stick WAY out..... and require a decent pull. a 15x7 would just need a roll right?

my S13 is all stock suspension wise. all the work is pretty much in the motor area.... was also debating maybe running x7 up front and x8s in the rear?

I'd get the 7 inchers. The 8s will stick out pretty far without a decent pull and a bit of camber.

those 15x8 -19 are gonna look horrible, esp considering you're only on lowering springs, unless you're going for that East LA lowrider look.

I'd go with the 15x7 -6. You'll only need a really decent roll... although with lowering springs, they might stick out a bit.
