I have acquired (yet to pick up) a rather adventurous set of wheels for my 2nd gen. I understnad offsets and all that jazz, which is why i was hunting for something similar to these. Anyways going off the wheels my brother has on his magna (18x8.5 +32) i have brought an obselete set of 18's... 18x8 +20 :D Now fitment shouldnt be a concern...legal fitment will be. My little bro's car is flush on the front and maybe 5mm in on the rears. So im taking it without trial fitting my rears will be OK but the fronts will stick out as much as 6-8mm depending on tread.
I thought "no wuckkaz" only to go outside and feel around and realise there probably isnt much room to roll thsoe stock guards? Am i correct? Most cars you can feel the lip that they roll back, but the 2nd gen doesnt seem to have this. The rada seems to have more like a seam, im sure with a guard roller i can flex it 5mm (hopefully thats all i need)
The wheels really appealed to me, coming from the import scene where dish is the shiznit. For there price and likelyhood of fitting i just had to buy. Can always pass them on to my brother inlaw with his futura
