Hello Friends,
I have 225/60/15 front and 255/60/15 on the rear for the moment.
I'am planning to buy 58 series 15" rims 7in. for the front and 8in. for rear..
Since i live in Turkey, I'am not able to preview the rims and i'm going to pay 1.6 times more because of the shipping and taxes etc.
I am scared the hell from the backspace and offset issues since i don't have the experience and in turkey inch is something from space we use metric system.. all the mechanics or the wheelshops nows about hondas and bmw's
I've only 5 days to make a decision so i need your help..
I am planning to put 275/60(or55)/15 in the future so 8" width is cool for me.
here is the links
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/WVI-54-5712044/ 7" for front
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/WVI-54-5812042/ 8" for rear.
the SS2 wheels at opgi have the same offset and backspace values and since there are no other value options on these well known websites, i'm calm.

Has anyone own those kind of setup? and what do you advice? My car has a 455 and hotchkiss springs so it is lower than usual...

here is a photo of my car.. don't mind the decals they're gonna chance soon.

Thanks for the help

 

I will measure my 8" wheels, and post the BS measurement, they're 'steelies' but that shouldn't matter. If you would like your rims to look a little deeper in the back, you could decrease the BS. I bought my rear wheels from Wheels Vintique direct and was pleased with the quality, but keep in mind they're steel, not chrome.
Later

 

My old wheels have a 5" BS, and the new set I bought from Wheels Vintique are 4.5" BS, you will be fine with 275's..

 

Can you e-mail me a photo of your car with vintique's? Thanks alot
