Who is running 15x7 fronts?

What's your offset? Got a pic showing the fender too? Just to see how it fits.

Front Fender:


I'm not really happy how they fit. I was planning on using the car for autoX, but it now has the turning radius of a Semi
Should have done more research up front.
Eventually I might have to go with a narrowed beam, and even bigger spacers...

I *think* the offset is either +35 or +38, I'd need to measure to be sure.

Where does it rub? The trailing arms or fender?

The tire actually hits the framehead.

You can get some narrower tires, and that will allow it to clear. Not sure what size you are running, but if they were 8s, i would recommend a 195/50 or 45.

That sucks, kinda reminds me of my bug.Mine stick out like that, sad thing is there 15x4.5" but I think what makes mine l;ook like that is the 195/60 on my wheel.It looks just like that, looking at your picture above. wonder how my turning will be...

25mm spacer(washers right now ), 2" narrowed beam
