Diamond racing wheels.

I have a question about these wheels if anyone might have an idea?

I've run big wheels in the past and am now running the stock 5-star 16" steelies that came with my 2011. I really like the looks of the pro-street "D" wheels from diamond racing. The wheels are made to order when purchasing, but I am curious as to what offset I'm going to need. They make the wheels from 13"-16" and any width needed as well as any bolt pattern needed. I'm looking at the 16x8 pro-street wheels in white to match my bus, but the offset options are in negative increments. I'm not sure which offset I might need to have a "flush" look. I'm also interested in running a 15x8 wheel, but again, I'm not sure if these would fit and I'm still confused about the offset. These wheels are really affordable and since I just purchased new tires a couple of months ago I could swap my tires onto the new wheels. If anyone has some input I'd really appreciate it. Here's a link to the wheels.
www.diamondracingwheels.com. The wheels I'm interested are located in the "street wheels" tab and then the "pro-street" wheels tab.

Thanks in advance!

Stock rim is 16x6.5 bolt circle 5 X 110 mm 42 mm offset

Try the tools in the tool bar and click tire and rim calculator


It sounds like they are primarily for rear wheel drive cars and trucks

Thanks Oldblue. Yes, they are geared towards rear wheel drive and circle track cars. They do make fwd wheels in any bolt pattern. A lot of honda and Nissan guys run them, but they usually run a smaller diameter wheel. I could get just get my stock wheels powder coated white.

I would be cautious on an 8" wide wheel. 7" is more likely to fit.

If you just got new tires, then an 8 inch wide rim wouldn't work. Max would be 7 inch wide rim
