hey stingray, the wheels are wedsport ma86 in 15x8.5 -10. you must modify fenders in order to fit. not flares, just rolling them and then in the front fender well you'll need to bash in a seam there. you'll know which one cuz you'll rub lock to lock ;) post pics up of your car too! :tu:

there's about 7 - 8 of us with AE86s (in various conditions) that hang out and often cruise around together.
