7,5x16'' et25 with 15mm rear spacers so final et10 on slightly pulled G60 fenders...

Rears sits flush:


7,5x16'' et25 with 8mm front spacers so final et17 on slightly pulled G60 fenders...

Fronts tuck a bit (unfortunately I don't have a better pic of the fronts ):



New wheels are 8,5x16'' et32
They are 5x100 tho so I need adapters...Really can't decide what size to get and what offset to aim for to keep the flush look (dont want poke in any case). Plus obviously since I'm 4x100 and the new wheels are 5x100 I can't try them on and measure to see

I've seen this: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp but it somehow confuses me more...

^^Using the above, with the options of 15mm or 20mm adapters the inner clearance is affected with options of 13mm to 23mm (less inner clearance) and the "poke" is affected with options of +3mm to +13mm (more poke)

Current tyres are 195/40 Toyos Proxes T1-Rs...
The car is lowered on coilovers and with the current setup less than an 1'' wheel gap...


Help?
