a lot of folks will be telling you 0. i for one say to get somewhere in the region of 15-25. it will flush them to the edge of the body without as much risk when lowering it.

Definately, the calculator probably just answered all of your questions.

Id run a 16x8 +10 with 215/50/16's.

I also want to run this same size rim, 16x8 with a 10 offset on an s13. I would really lie to run a 225/50/16 and i was wondering if i am going to need a pull to make these fit properly.

Oh yea, the car is on coils and just low enough as to wear the tires are tucking. I have ~2.5-3.0 Degrees of negative camber and also have the fenders rolled.

Will the 225 be too wide or should i go for a smaller tire or will i need a pull to get either tire to fit properly.

sorry to thread jack.

thanks
