Wheel fitment
I know that some where there is a thread with this informantion so if you could point me in the right direction that would be great or just help me with advise.
I'm looking at ordering a new set of wheels and I was looking at ordering 17x8.5 + 35 what would I have to do in order for them to fit right. Also how low of an offset could I go without pulling or flaring my fenders.

def gotta roll depending on the drop. you can run stretch tires and you dont have to pull the fenders. rims will poke tho. ep3jd or someone smarter than me mite chime in and correct me

17x9 +30 would poke ever so slightly. Especially with a couple degrees of negative camber. What kind of look are you going for? You could PROBABLY get away with a 225/45 and a real tight roll with the camber.

Ya it sucks going to meets and they are like it's just an si.... I'm like dude there is jam headlights 5 lug conversion k20a2 swap with LSD 6 speed tranny arc intake buddy club race header kpro Megan racing coil overs and the list goes on.... So I guess it's time to get Hellas flush to make people ask questions.

Ok well you think I will be ok with slammed on 17x9 +30 with 225/45/17 with a tight roll on the front and rear? You think it will be considered Hellas flush? Would 235s be possible?

You won't get too low with that size.


I have 17x9 +25 205/40

I just don't want to have too much of a stretch... Do you have pictures of the 205 stretch?
