You'll need to tell us the width, bolt pattern, offset, etc. before anyone can begin to help you out.

axis should have something in the +40s, that would work much better.. the bolt pattern is correct.

+ 17 offset will probably fit, however, you will run into rubbing issues. I'm not sure, anyone here running that aggressive an offset? Fenders rolled?

the guy i talked to first didnt know what he was saying, the offset sounded fishy to me...

i just called darren at axis and this is what he said.

"We use an 18 X 8.5 and 18 x 9.5. +45mm front and +55mm rear.

The fronts weigh 20lbs and 23lbs for the rear.

"
