New wheels for FB, Please help
Hi all,
Been I while since I posted. I actually never noticed that this "flame free" section exists, very good to know since I often receive many flames
Anyways, I've been searching for wheels for my 1984 FB (GS model) for a while now. Been looking for a set of SSR star sharks on yahoo japan for months now, no luck. Havent been able to find anything I like that fits the somewhat unusual 4x110 pattern. Today however, I stumbled upon the Rota Shakotans (link below). They definitely have that classic JDM look that I've been going for. However, not sure if they will fit my car.
The largest offset offered in the 4x110 pattern is +15. From what I've gathered reading other posts, the offset of the stock "+" rims is approx +20. If so, will these fit my car? Can I go with even less offset? I dont want to have to roll my fenders, but I would like my tires to fill the fender wells as much as possible. I have original suspension, and planning on running 15x7 with 205/50R15 tire.
I've had a really hard time finding an answer in this forum because I keep getting conflicting data. One user claimed that a 15x8 rim with 0 offset will fit without rubbing. Another user said that he is having rubbing issues with +10 offset.

Please share your experience, thank you very much for your help. If you have aftermarket wheels on your FB, please provide year/model rx7, wheel size, wheel offset, tire size, pictures too if possible. Any info will help
