Just to confirm that I will be ok in the front without any fender roll?(I believe I will be fine) im trying to stick to 17's and found a real tempting set

I found 17x8 +25 or +35 fronts
and 17x9 +25 or 35 rear

Thinking i'll do the +35 offset up front and +25 in the rear (opinions?) plus I can reuse the tires on my tt wheels
I don't want to have rubbing issues while turning on my coilovers and currently don't with the tt wheels

I personally prefer a square tire set up, so the spare fits anywhere...

17X9+25 for me, with a fender roll (barely any pull - in the front only), +35 is inward another 10mm from these photos...

I posted my setup on here a couple weeks ago I have 17x9 et35 all the way around dropped on b&g springs. Had to roll the front fenders just a little.

ok cool maybe i'll do the +25 up front then, i'd rather not pull and want to do staggered again plus I can reuse my tires from my tt wheels which are brand new up front and just about brand new in the rear

was just a little concerned with the front maybe rubbing on turns

 

[kdog1988]

By going with +25 its actually going to place the rim more towards the outside so your definitely going to have to roll your fenders. Also what suspension are you running that'll make a difference also

yes I know that, im on tein ss's currently running tt wheels

well I could just keep it safe and go 35 offset coming from 50 up front

 

[kdog1988]

Well being on coils you should be fine with +25 because the lower you are the wheels are naturally going to sit further inward.

+25 and you could fit 295 in the back and 285 in the front. Suspension needs to be stiff and fenders above the tires barely. I've seen it. Looks good and meaty.

18x9.5 +22

You need a good pull and probably a little too much camber to really fit them. If you hit a rough patch of road and your tire goes into the arch area, it will still rub with a full roll. Didn't really bother me, we have mostly good roads here.
+30-35ish offset may have cleared everything (suspension) inside the wheel well and would've fit much better IMO. I have bilstein coilovers so I dont know how close they are in size to the stock stuff, not sure how much room there is to play with.

 

[gsxr141]

ok, stupid question. if 18x9.5 +35 with 265-35's fit great in the back, how would 10.5 + 30 or 35 with 295's fit?
i'm looking at that size and it seems like it might work.
i get really confused with offsets. would the 10.5's sit in an inch further or out an inch?
thanks....

What size tires? And what suspension?

I tucked tire with 265 up front on +25.

My rims/tires came in today. Will be putting them on the week of 4/14 when I get the car out of storage. Will also be installing B&G springs. They are staggered fitment:
TSW Carthage Silver with mirror cut lip 18x8 +20 with 225/40/18 and 18x19.5 +35 with 255/35/18.
