Im running 195 and the rear is 2mm off the strut and pretty much inline with the gaurd. I think its on 6 inch rims with 35 offset, not sure though...

205 would probably be a maximum.

I ran 205's on my ae92 a few years back. Rear clearance was fine, just minor fron guard rubbing which was easy to sort. I cant reacll the offset however sorry.

offset is 35 , and the width depends on ur rollin diameter , i have fit 215/35-18 on an ae92 before with no probs but remeber its all to do with ur rolling daimeter by not exceeding wot factory intended 8)

:oops: eidt

THA SHZ dont you have flares (bash out guards :lol: ) That would allow you to go wider?

My car is lowered too, around 45mm, rubbing on the front with hardish cornering, easy to fix though.

Rear is 5mm off the strut, about 20mm away from the outter lip of the guard on 195/60/14 35 offset

Front is fine.

Could probably go 205/215 at maximum as THA SHZ said.

i have 205/40/17s on a 17x7... with shagged shocks it used to rub in the back under hard cornering but now with the new ones its fine.... it sits with the top of the rear rims in the guards with people in the back and still doesnt scrub my cars an fx-g 4 door tho so i dunno if i have the same inner gaurds at the back... my plastic inner gaurds at the front have been removed and there is a polished piece on the end of my gze gearbox from full lock...
When in doubt, down and out.
