Possibly a +35 offset.

Likely Enkei made for Bridgestone per this thread:
http://www.galantvr4.org/ubbthreads/sho ... ost1154965

Will these space like 15" GVR4 rims if they are 15 x 6.5" with +35mm offset ??
Stock GVR4 15x6.00 ET46
Enkei pictured 15x6.5 ET35 maybe in the 40's, getting confirmation ...

Apparently Galant VR4 rims are setup like this: 195/60 R15 6x15 ET46 4x114.3

Should I ?? They would get a reinvented color scheme for sure.

Those don't appeal to me. The Rota Slipstreams are more attractive by far and probably lighter. But you could definitely do far worse.

I like them. They have a proper "old-school import" look. They need a lot of love, but you could make them nice again. +35 is a rather low offset for a CSM. They will likely stick out a bit, especially in the rear. The 1/2" difference in width will not make up for the 11mm of offset difference. +40mm is the magic number for offset on these cars.

They will be sex when refinished and IMO they are the perfect size, get them!

The +34 on my 15x7 in the rear don't stick out at all, decently flush.

Hmmmmm ..... this is good news.

Now I have to find out what the true offset really is.
Hope it's stamped/embossed into the grooves in the back of the spokes.
If the offset is closer to 40 ... all the better then.

Owner wanted to say +38 but waiting on confirmation of some sort of marking or physical measurement.

I like them! And I think +35 will do just fine. I have 15x7.5 +32 in the rear of my car, I'm not a huge fan of the way they look in the back but it comes with wanting rare wheels lol. The rear tires have a very tiny bit of stretch, nothing like the hella flush kids, and I don't have any poke.

I knew you would say something. :lol:

I think it would look a million times better with a squared off bumper like the jdm ones.

Great to know quikgt!

I'm still waiting on confirmation if the seller is indeed, in for shipping and all that.

Got this up for sale to help the blow ... http://ottawa.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles ... Z559249986

Was supposed to be the basis of a new exhaust system ... but getting larger wheels that may fit the GVR4 caliper setup, is a priority I have been looking into upgrading.
