Looking for Wheel Advice (16x7 45-offset)

[NewfieArcher]

I'm looking at a set of wheels that are 16x7 with a 45 offset. Will these fit? Does anyone have a similar set?

They should definitely fit - I have 16x7 with a +37 offset, which means they would stick out further than your +45. +45 is pretty conservative, and very very close to stock offset on this car. I also have 205/45/16 tires, and have never once experienced rubbing. Your fitment is what Tire Rack sells, and they go very conservative in general. Anyone who has had different experience with a 16 on a 2, please speak up!

I decided to stick on 15" wheels with the new ones I'm getting today, but I've never heard of any issues with those sort of wheels on a 2.

I've been thinking about picking up a set of Konig Lightspeeds, which are 15X7.5 with a +32 offset. I wonder if that will get me in any trouble.

Thanks.

Wheel fitment

I think the SEMA Evil2 runs 15x7.5 +20, im in this struggle now, im looking at 15x8.25 with a +25 offset, and from charts/caculators/researching google, I should be able to run it as it gives slight more inner clearance, without placing the center line off by more than a couple mm's

I think even a 15x9 with offset of 15-25 would work...if looking for an aggressive, wide stance. I currently run 17x7.5 +40 on 205/40/17s and no rubbing, but I want more performance and less weight.

I have a set of konig lightspeed bronze 15x7.5. Looks good. Paid $105 each and got $100 back in rebate from discount tire so it's practically $80 per wheel. Last year's deal.

What offset? mine are 43 and "just" make it by this [..........] much so there's not a ton of wiggle room. Front is the inner lip on the strut tube and the the rear is the outer lip on the inner edge on the fender/quarter panel

Mine are 32 mm offset. it fits fine and I autocross with it. No rubbing but my car is stock height. not sure if if you lower your car though.

I'm on lightspeeds right now and now issues. I got them for the miata but the 2 is borrowing them. Just about a perfect fitment, but you'll probably want near -1.5 degrees or more camber if your lowered alot. I'm on rb springs.
