VOLK SF WINNING, will this fit?
hey guys.
i'm looking into Volk SF winning for the rear for now... and i'm wondering if these will fit? They said it's a perfect offset for an rx-7

VOLK SF WINNING, -7 offset, 19x9.5, 5x114.3

I know the lug pattern is right, but will this fit???

Well, considering the stock offset is 50mm, I would go with no. I'm not sure but thats a pretty big difference in offset.

Who's, "they"? That's going to be REAL wide back there. They will stick out about 3" from where the stock wheels are.

With a 40mm offset I can see a difference in my BBS's. I can only imagine how much father that would be sticking out with an offset of -7.

Maybe it's perfect if you have the Rmagic Widebody kit.

Who is "they" anyhows?

"They" make no sense.

Your stock wheels are 8" wide and have a 50mm offset. Going to 9.5" and a -7mm offset will gain 3" additional width in the rear on each side.

I guess you trust "they" pretty well.. go for it. If they say it would fit, try it out.

Don't do that to your 8. You car will drive horribly afterwards. Plus I can't imagine going 57mm less offset will be good for your suspension.

THANKS rpirx... for those others that motivated me to get it, and use me as a guinea pig

Anyhow, i ordered 4 19x8.5 all around AXIS HIRO. offset for that is 45mm. I guess that makes more sense!
