Yeah yeah i know i know theres already plenty...
but i cant find anything on if these will fit.

Im buying them for my R32 drift pig but that wont get here for a couple of months...SO... i was thinking i would stick em on the Magna for now.

We're getting a 2000 model Magna Exec from Lukas here on the forums... hopefully picking it up tonight.

Would these fit?

17inch by 9.5inch wide with a +15 offset

Theyre Koya Drift Techs... Gold... the car is champagne... i reckon would look pretty sweet... especially once i chuck the lowered springs on.

highly doubt it! that is a massive wide wheel, 9.5!! the widest a lowered execs will go usually is 225 before the rubber catches on the gaurd at wheel lock.
you also dont want to go too wide it will have an adverse effect on the ride (esp the feel of steering) quality because the drive wheels are also the steering wheels unlike skyline which u can put fats on the back and more narrow on the front.

235's on a 9.5" wheel? are you crazy?!! aint no way the rubber's gonna stretch that far mate! i used to just barely fit 235 on an 8.5" wheel.....

:) quite easily

i had 9.5inch wide rims on the soarer and stretched 235s over them... and on my old cefiro i had deep dish 10.5s on the rear in 18inch with 235s stretched over em for drift... my mate has 18s which are 12inch wide deep dish and has 255s stretched over them for drift :)
