I tried fitting the Riken wheel/tires from the Box Flare car this weekend:
Riken 16x7 Zero offset (L) with 225/50/16 vs Panasport 16x7 +10 offset 205/45/16….Yikes!
front, no chance of clearing front fenders…too much tire!
Barely clears
rear:

Those look to tall for 16 x 225/45 so I looked a littler closer....
Those are 16 x 225 / 50 ...still look more than 20 mm wider......

thanks for catching that Phil, edited post. I think the RS-3s run a little wider than "normal" street tires

Alvin,
Someone local to me has a set 15x7 with 0 offset. Would you say these wouldnt work? Im still trying to find some jdm wheels, 15" to clear 300zx calipers, but not needing spacers or rubbing.

16x7 0 offset Konig Rewinds with 225/50's rub like a bastard on my 74 260z... I need about 5 mm to get comfortable. Took my fat accountant for a ride and peeled off half my sidewall. Good thing my wife is skinny...
