Default J's fender question?

Need some advice on rim offset/width for these fenders.
I'm not sure what to order.

Thanks for any advice...

they are 40mm wider, so my guess would be subtract 40mm from the normal s2k offset. Example: 17x9" CE28N has a +63 offset fitment for the front, so you would want a +23 offset, or around there...

but with wider fenders your going to want a wider wheel so minusing 40mm isnt really going to help you.

correct, but it is an easy way to get some wheel fitments quickly. Who needs a 17x10 with a 265 up front anyway?

17" CE28N's run a +63 offset in the REAR

Off the top of my head I want to say that most people run +50 in the front, but I'd have to go home and look at mine again before I say for sure

I think suterusu was refering to the amuse setup. 17x9 +63 front and rear.

yeah, the Amuse street setup.

the touge monster runs 17x9" +40 all around to clear the R1 BBK. Hence the fender lip being rolled out.

Thanks... I was thinking about work emotions 17+9 front and rear (28f..44r.)
But the look of the wheel would be vary different i.e. the front wheels
would have a more aggressive look than the rears..

I'm looking to run 17x9 +40 or +35 CE28N's in the front with J's Fenders and 17x9 +54 CE28N's in the rear.
