Hey guys, Im a complete rim noob and i'd like to know whether i'd need anything (oe. spacers/offsets) to have this rolling on my car. I have stock springs and I don't think i'll be running coils in awhile. Lastly, what do you guys think about this? Is it not good? too heavy, chances on bending etc?

stock = +40mm

Those look like ~30mm - 40mm

So what does that mean? PLease speak like im five.

on a side note::

81 GL1100-mild cafe 83
CB550/650SC- Awesomeness

Interested to see how that cafe GL looks like.
and as a cb550 owner, I'd like to see the cb as well ^_^.

Here's mine.

But, +40 means:

find the center of the wheel width
measure distance OUT (opposite of towards car) 40mm
that's where it mounts


or, -40mm
find center, measure IN 40mm

Now, keep in mind, a 15x7 is ACTUALLY 7.5 (ish) wide, on the outside. So don't use their measurements.

Also, backspace is measured different. First, it's in inches, second, it's measured from the inner edge, to call a 15x7+0 would be like a 15x7-(dash, NOT MINUS)-3.5

Yeah, when I get around to it, I'll get some pics
