i think the offset should be fine, well maybe. what's your offset on your rims, project323?

I will tell you something. when I had my 16x7 rims with +40 offset. I used to put my hand in the back and feel how much space there was between the wheel and the strut and there wasn't much. Maybe a finger would fit in there.
So to use a +42. I am not sure if that would work. I would like to see what a +38 offset wheel would look like on our cars, in like a 15" rim.

i have the 16x7 with a 36+ offset, and they never rubbed or anything when they were slammed with my coilovers. they actually look like the are flush with the fenders. they looked good.
but right now i just have my 15's on, not too sure on the offset on them, maybe around 37-39+? around there.
maybe less is better, 36-40+.
