I would like try a test fit of 16 x 8 wheels with +25mm offset on my 91 Eunos, so if anyone in Melbourne area has 1, 2 or a complete set currently off the car that I could try out for fit and appearance I would appreciate the favor.
Regards Zaq

it's a fairly specific size you want, and not a particularly common one.
the general wheel of choice for the lower offset crowd is the Sportmax which is a 15x8+15, apparently these fit with rolled guards and a little bit of camber.
seeing as how a 8+25 will sit 10mm further in the guard they should fit fine.
here's the formula to work out how they sit:
width = W
offset = O
the inner depth will be:
(Wx25.4)+O
the outer will be:
(Wx25.4)-O
work that out for the OEM wheels, then do the same for the new ones.
OEM inner - New inner = millimetres further from suspension (closer if negative)
OEM outer - New outer = Millimeters further IN from guard lip (closer to guard lip if negative)
remember though, that's jsut for the wheel, it doesn't take into account the tyres you choose.

16x8 +25
Wouldn't be Axis OG by chance?

I have test fitted some 15 x 8 +25 Axis OGs but I would like to see how 16's look and fit before buying 15's just in case I like the look of 16's better.

on a NA. 14" are the best size.. 16s look a tad too big for the NA
