Fitting Wheels (I Couldnt find the topic)

Just wanted to know would the wheel size fit.

Wheel size:

14 x 6.0 Inch

+14 Offset

Stud pattern: 4x114.3

Would that fit an ET?

i couldn't say for sure,but im guessing with such an aggressive offset youd have to watch the guards youd have fair poke.. but also depends on the size of the tyre

a quick calculation on - http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp basing stock specs at 195/60 5" +46 (correct me if im wrong) says with the same sized tyres that
100% clear (leaves even more room than OEM) < inner clearance
Package will stick out 32 mm (1.3'') farther < outer clearance

Thanks for replying, When I get my ET back ill just have to go to a wheel shop and try it out... I know you can drill a new hole for your shocks to move in a bit but I dont want to do that

14x6 +14 is not gonna be any where near the suspension components!

i had a 15x6.5 +30 on in this pic.
your wheels will stick out 10mm further. you are gonna have a slight stretch on a low profile 14 to fit

Have you had trouble fitting the wheels with lowered springs? Im not sure if i should get lowered springs or standard. They are the same price but i would like to know if lowered springs will make the car scrape and not be an enjoyable car ride

Any help appreciated.

BTW the lowered springs are 25-30 mm lower then standard.

makes for better ride lest sway wouldnt go lower then that though

Cool so lowered springs the go? Im going to be fitting wheels similar to shane but maybe 7" instead of 6.5" just worried about guard scraping
