Planning to get some Hayashi wheels 15x7 with +4 offset for my 1200 coupe, would they stick out and rub on the fenders? don't know much about offsets, or would they tuck in? let me know guys what you think, thanx

on the front they would probably sit out side the fenders as well as possibly rub on foot weel of the cabin a full lock. try first with tyres.

They definitely wouldn't fit on the front.

On the back -- if the offset was just right -- the would just fit if you roll then fender lip. But the odds that they would have the right offset are about zillion to one.

Try Toyota Celica Supra 14x7 wheels.

Since you already have 7 inch wide wheels, I retract my statement. It seems 7 inch will fit on the front.

Most guys run 6 inch wide or less on the front.

A lot of guyes fit 17" to 1200. Even a few 18" wheels.

I've got 14x7 with about a +8 offset too and with mine lowered (alot) they only just sneak inside the guard on the front and back.I've got 195/45/14's and they are about the same width as the rim. a 185 would fit nicer.

They should fit since your at stock height and you say 14x7 +8's fit. A +4 will only stick 4mm further outward,

What size tyres do you plan on running as that will also affect the likelyhood of them fitting too especially on full lock as mentioned. If you can keep to a 185 or below (and a lowish profile, say a 45, 50 or 55, i'm not sure whats available over there) on the front you should be alright

I'm planning to run 195-50-15 tires , the toyota wheels i'm running has 185-60-14 tires, with no rubbing issues. How much is 4mm more sticking out? in inches I mean.

4mm = 5/32 inch.

You should be alright then 195's have the same rolling diamter as the 185/60/14's. The wheels and tyres are fractionally wider than what you've got already so
its unlikely they would scrub but if they do it would only be a little bit on full lock but you'd probably only ever use full lock in car parks so not really an issue.
