Simmy is running 9.5 +38 all around:



A 17 x 8 +48 would be an easier fit in the front. You can probably tell from the pic, you are going have to do some fender work to make those fit. If you don't want to roll fenders, you need to be looking at offsets +50 or higher.

Pose this question in the Wheels and Tires by The Tire Rack subforum. You should receive a quick and accurate answer.

I thought I replied in here but I figured they were Enkie. In RP03, you can run a 17x9 +40 all around and get the concave look I have. It's a lot easier to fit as well and you can run 225/45/17 front and 255/40/17 rear with a roll and a slight pull. What is your alignment spec?

they dont make a 17x9 but the do have a 17x8.5 +30 or +35
and right now i have stock alignment specs, i really dont mind rolling the fenders but i really dont wanna pull them.
I love they way they look and dont have to have 9.5's but i wanna fill up the fenders and dont drive my car super hard. idk may have to look at some thing else they also have 17x8 + 48 this is kinda of what i want because they have them in the chorme finsh what do yea think?
