Is there any chance these would fit my '69 2000?
I found a used set for a good price but they're a ways away from me and I'd rather not waste my time if there's no chance that they'll work.
Thanks!

Depending on what tire size you run they might "fit". The +12 offset they offer is a bit safer on clearance.

Re: Rota RB 15x7 +4 Offset
Depends on your definition of “fitâ€
As Alvin said tire selection will make a huge impact on well they actually fit , 195/55/15 at 23.7†is typically the recommended tire size in 15 but they may rub if the tire run wide , 185/55/15 would b a safer bet being just 23.2â€
This here are the Rota RBs in 16x7 with and offset of +10 , tires are 205/45/16 which are the same height as 185/55/15, the +4 would stick out 1/4 more so rear might need slight rolling


This is 15x7.5 +4 which sticks out 1/4 more than 15x7 +4 with 195/55/15 the rear needed extensive rolling

Re: Rota RB 15x7 +4 Offset
Thanks guys. Sounds like they won't fit without rolling the fenders. Thanks for the pictures Pjackb. They were very helpful. I think I'm going to pass as I don't really want to mess with rolling my fenders.

Pjackb, Is the green car yours? If so, do you know the color code? Love it! Sorry to hi-jack the wheel post, but I need paint more than wheels!
