I have a 2007 R56 MCS. It's currently at stock ride height. I will be getting coilovers in the future but will be driving around at stock height for a while.
I'm about to order some Rota RB's and wanted to make sure I was getting the right size. How does the following look?

I'm looking at:

Rota RB's 16x8, 4x100, 57.1, 35 offset

I don't plan on slamming the car. I'll most likely have the coilovers set at a 1.5" drop.

What would be the best tire for this setup? 205/50? 215/50? I want to make sure the same tire will work at stock ride height as well as lowered.
Thanks!

 

From what I have read the hub bore you want is 56.15 or something large enough, such as 67.0 or 73.0,
for a hub-centric ring. The 57.10 will fit loose, just a little, and may cause vibrations.

Rota makes the RB in 16x7 with a 42 offset and a 56.15 hub bore if your interested.

If you go with the 35 offset a 215/50/16 will most likely rub if the car is lowered.

Hope this helps...

 

What kazlot said, I would go with a 215/50R16 on an 8" rim, or even 225/45R16 to fill out that wider wheel.
I think with coilovers you can adjust to avoid rubbing...?
