Yeah they are.
They're 16X7s with +40 offset, so it basically has the same dimensions as the stock TII wheels.
I wrapped them in 225/50-16 Goodyear Eagle Gts; the tires are a close fit but they fit without problems.

Once I'm back in town, will be starting rear quarter modification (pulling a custom wide-body, capped with gutted panspeed over-fenders from and rear)

What wheels are these? Are these the enkei remakes?

I have an 88 na FC with 4 lug and plan to stay that way. I found some used wheels and tires and was wondering if they would fit. I have coilovers on the way and plan to go pretty low.

17x8 +25 225/35 (front)
17x9 +25 235/35 (rear)
would they fit my fc with out rolled finders?

thanks

You'll need to roll the lips up on the fenders. No flare needed.

Yeah, lots of good fitment here! You guys are almost as bad as the AE86 guys when it comes to wheels! I already decided on my wheels, just in the air about tire size.

I want 17x8.25 XXR 527s on a 88 TII, but I'm still in the air about the tire size. Thinking about 225/45R17 but I don't know if that will give me the stretch I'm looking for. Alot harder to decide this stuff with real wheels instead of my old corolla 14x7s! LOL

I was thinking about putting a 17x9.5" -15(with spacers) wheel with a 245/40/17 tire up front. I would have +50mm wide fenders on if I did that. What do you guys think??

I might as well post pictures of my 16x7.5" 30mm offset Mustang rims with the 225/50-16 tires front and rear. The center caps are ugly, but the rims were only 16.7lbs each and were dirt cheap.
