Guys, what do think of these? Will they work with an NB 993?

The back should fit. I'm just wondering about the fronts with 43 offset?
Thanks

yes they should fit fine. a 43mm offset pushes your entire wheel inward. if you put a 7mm spacer then you have the stock offset. that would be the obvious fix. with a 7mm spacer you could run a 235/245 tire, but on a 8" wheel you wouldn't want to go more than that anyway.

993_Pilot. sorry your explanation is correct. don't know what i was thinking - brain fart for the moment. In any case the answer is it will still fit. i ran a 245 on a 9" wheel with a 43mm offset with non-coil overs.

Oh well, you had a brain fart, and I had a bad guess in my first post. Apparently he will be able to go with a bigger tire than a 225.
