so 15 offset is definitely more aggressive... but how wide of a tire could i get away with if i have 17" wheels? i'm guessing that i would be pushing the tire more to the outside of the car?

^I'm not sure on how wide of a tire you could have with the +15 offset. When I had my mind set on getting the 17X9's +35 I was planning on putting a 275/35/17 All around. I would say that a 255 or 265 would be a good size tire for what your looking for.

i think i'm just going to go with the 35 offset, now that i've seen pictures of it.

with +15, your not gonna be able to run much rubber, if you are lowered. It's a very hard fit, but doable. That's the setup I am looking at 17x10 +15 all around.

Looking into 17s. How would these do? Also, from what I've read this tire size will result in the closest to accurate speedo reading for this rim size?

Rims
F: 17x8.5 +30
R: 17x8.5 +30

Tires
F: 245/45-17
R: 245/45-17

Those will fit fine.

ok im looking at 18x9.5 on all 4 corners. However the only offset I can find in the rims I am looking at is +20 and +28 is this doable without rubbing? I want a flush look. Or should I try and continue looking for a 18x9.5 in a 30 or 35 offset?

Your gonna rub, even if you are on a real small tire. If you don't wanna rub you should look at stuff above 40.

If you are willing to roll/pull you'll be able to run in the 20's without problems, with smaller tire.

hey guys planning to get rims for an 8 and the fenders will be rolled front and back. With that being said, whats the lowest offset i can get away with without rubbing after the roll? The car will be lowered close to 2 inchs enough to fit 1 finger in the wheel well or half a finger.

19x8.5 F and 19x9.5 R
i was thinking of going +30 fronts and +36 rears. how does that sound?

i appreciate the input guys!

^That will be fine. With rolled fenders it should be ok as long as you add a little bit of negative camber.

NightShark

^^^ the fronts should be ok for sure right? the rears is cutting a bit close and should be what i'm worried about?

Also, if i wanted to use a NON-staggered setup with 8.5 all around, the rears would then be converted to 19x8.5 +23 correct? Is that even a common offset in that size?

thanks guys

Found the following sizes, which ones will fit/not fit, same size all around:

18x10.5s:

18x10.5 +48
18x10.5 +49
18x10.5 +50
18x10.5 +54

18x11s:

18x11 +43
18x11 +48
18x11 +54

18x11.5s:

18x11.5 +48
18x11.5 +49
18x11.5 +54

do you guys think 11s or 11.5s are possible at all???? I've heard 11s might be doable with the precise offset.

For these rims and tires, what offset would be better, options are +30 or +40?

imput1234

iTrader: (6)

^ +30 would be closer to flushness.

imput1234

iTrader: (6)

All of them will fit, what tires are you gonna run.

Jasonawojo

Isn't that really close on fitment though? I recall seeing somewhere that at least on 17x9s that an offset around 30s was risky.

^+30 on 9" should be fine...

here's 18x9 +30 offset - Rota Boost's



looks like a clean fit w/no rubbing...

true it's not 17's but i'm sure it wouldn't be any more dangerous than running w/18's -

could be wrong of course, i've made mistakes before

You'll need to roll.

Jasonawojo

iTrader: (2)

Ah, ok. I'd like to avoid doing so in any case, so on 8.5s +40 would be the safe bet?

imput1234

iTrader: (6)

I mean you can run +30, and still be fine. depends on tire to.

But yes with + 40 you'll be fine.

are you positive on the +54 offset?????

peregrinus

looking at getting a set of SF challanges from volk

19x9.5" all around +48 offsets.

will those fit up front?

not sure on tires, mostly worried about the rims in general.

Just look and see what other people have done. I would think if you are going to spend that much money, you would go a bit more aggressive.
