i found a set of rims that i actually like compared to what the car came with. anyways, their only available in 35mm offset, and since i dont really understand the wheel offset so much, can somebody tell me if they will fit or not?

for those of you who are curios, they are core racing EVO-7 rims

I got 15" wheels with 35 offset, 195/60 tires. So they should work :)

Read up on offset here:

You should factor in the width of your wheels, which you didn't give us.

15" wheels in that offset will be fine. Just make sure you get proper size tires such as 195/55/15 or 205/50/15.

Then you'll be good to go... 35mm offset is still relatively high.

the width itself is 6.5"

i used this calculator and i still dont get what it really means

asides from my clearance between the strut and the rim being 3mm less then stock, what does the outer position 'extend an extra 23mm' mean?
