I decided it would be a good idea to replace the mismatched tires and rims on my newly purchased 4wd Justy. I found a set of fairly priced 14x6 +38 Rally Potenza R-4's. The inside is stepped and fits nicely on the hub. What do ya think?

No, a boxer will not fit in a Justy.

I think other than a little bit of rash on the lip, those are some very attractive wheels. Hopefully you don't rub on the rear trailing arms once the tires are mounted.

Yea, there is about a finger width of clearance between the wheel and the trailing arm. I am still trying to figure out what tires to run so that the chances of rubbing are mitigated.

Those are very nice. They will definitely give you at least a 15 hp gain ;D, and will look particularly bad ass if you find yourself driving in a slow motion sequence. Please post some pictures once you get them mounted. I am going to get something like that for my Justy as well.

^ Thank you!
I test fit some 175/65R14 tires on the wheels and then mounted the wheels to the car. There is clearance from the trailing arm. I need to wait until my new OEM springs and bushings arrive before installing the tires and wheels. The previous owner thought it would be a good idea to cut the springs and remove the rubber mounting bushings. The front was also gifted with some, what looks to be, ebay coils. The car rides like utter garbage and squats really bad in the rear.
