what's the offset of your wheels?
now that i think about it, what's the offset of our stock wheels, was it +45? (5 spoke, 15" honeycombs, 14" honeycombs)

Stock offset is 45 IIRC

He has konig heliums, so 42 offset as I have the same rims.

Jigsaw.. any rub? 7" rim? Better pics from the side? I wanna see the sidewall height

do you guys know what's the largest tread possible on our stock rims before rubbing, i have 205/55/R15's right now and it's not rubbing, is 215/50R15 possible?

Well yea.. that will actually have a smaller sidewall..

Just the width you need to worry about, but 215 is usually ok, its just the offset and width of the rims. 215 on a 6.5" rim isnt the greatest. I would stick with the stock size.
