The question is do i go for 15x6.5 or 15x7.5?
They are both 40+mm offset (so i don't know if that is bad news or not when it comes to rubbing....cuz i wanted 45+mm to be safer).

BUT my car is not lowered and i don't plan on lowering it....so will I be 100% safe from inner and outer rubbing if i go with a 15x7.5 wheel for my stock car?

I'm thinking of putting 225/50/15 wheels on the 15x7.5  or is that too wide? Should I go with 205/50/15s to be safe?

You've got a couple or three threads going now essentiallly all about your new rims (nothing wrong with that) but, and maybe I've just missed it, it seems unclear to me exactly what it is you're trying to achieve.

For example ... for me with my new rims and tires it was all about how they would work on the track - effectiveness, weight, and cost were my primary drivers ... looks was way down the list.

So far you've looked at 16" Rota's - your sig still says you want 17" EAPs and now you're considering 15" rims ... and then you also say that lowering the car isn't an option ... I think we all want to help out if we can, but I for one am really confused as to what it is you're trying to achieve with your car. And frankly, no disrespect intended, but I think you might be too.

Perhaps you should take a step back and really think about your objectives again for the overall car, and then get back into the "what should I do" mode.
