OK, call me lazy, I just dont want to make an LD to call SLP.(which i'll probably have to do anyways..) I'm looking at an ad for SLP where they are selling knock-offs of stock 4th gen rims. I have an 89RS.
They are selling a set of rims(16x8) and tires(245/50zr16) for $549. My question is would those fit, I'm sure I would have to get a spacer for the rims but I'm worried about the width or the tire... Any ideas and comments would be helpful...Thanks..

Ummm.. yea, they'll fit. The spacers are going to be required otherwise I don't know why they wouldn't.

You'll need 2-1/4" spacers on the front and 1-3/4" on the rear,

I run 2" spacers all around. No rubbing problems at all, and the back tires look mean pushed out the extra inch or so.

 

What I'll probably end up doing is buying a 4th gen rear end for a J-yard, and then I won't have to worry about rear spacers.. I'll just have to worry about the front ones..

I did 2-1/4" all the way around, for 2 reasons, one, the stance looks mean, and 2, it's easier to sell the second pair when I get my 4th gen rear end bolted up, I have 2 sitting here, just need some gears for them, my brothers 96 Trans Am just ate the crap out of 4 sets of gears, either bad installs or crappy gears.

you need about $150 worth of bolt on spacers.
