    40 mm or more is usually what it takes to prevent rubbing on the strut unless the wheel is narrow.

    Do not run 35mm offset. Flat out not worth it, stay away. Do not take the bait of what you might think is a deal, it's not. Use 40mm to 45mm. 45mm can be REQUIRED for certain sizes, like 215 width on 16's and for 18" rims.

    35mm is only ok if they are 16x7's with 205/40/16 with no camber kits. Anything else with rub.

    205/60-15 Oh yeah, that'll rub big time. Only way you can run 35mm offset on 15" rims is to run 195/50-15 tire's. Which are undersized and will look kinda funky plus your speedo will be off, just like running 205/40-16's.
