i am very confused on the offsets and size..... im lookin for 17's but i dont get the offsets i want rims that wont rub if lowered to a nice height. can anyone help me with sizes and offsets and explain?

 

wheels fitment guide

next time, do a search.

 

most people recommend +45-48 and up.... The wider rim u wanna to, the stronger the offset

For instance, my fronts are 18x8 +56 rear 18x9.5 +62.....mine do not rub

But I did a lot of searching here before I bought anything

 

17x8 +48 and 17x9 +48 is the limit of "safe" fitment.

So many factors come in to play with fitment
Tire size, camber, sidewalls, even tire pressure (ask enthralled).

I have 17x8 +45 and 17x9 +45 and they rub and hit stuff.

 

If you buy the 17's just try to get close to the OEM AP2 fitment, which is .....

Front:
17" x 7.0", +55 offset, 215/45-17 tire
Rear:
17" x 8.5", +65 offset, 245/40-17 tire

I'm almost flush and have no rubbing issues at all.

btw I've swapped back to my OEM wheels and need to lower this bish a bit more!!

 

it's about time you swap back... you been talking about swaping your oem wheels back on for the longest time!

 

I'm just lazy.
