I ordered a set of 17in TE-37... And it was deliveried... However, the front wheel offset is wrong.... it is +40mm for the front... not +48mm for the front as I expected to have... they told me it is gonna fit my Stook... but, I have lowered my stook...with Zeal B6 coilover... So, just wondering if it is gonna fit my stook.. Can anyone tells me if it is or it is not gonna fit??

Also, I am thinking about Advan RG !!
any idea??
the Japan web site has it for 17x7.5 +48mm offset for the front and 17x8.5 +50 mm offset for the rear ... but I did not see the same offset at another web site... so, I could still able to get it? can I run the same size tire for it? I already got S-03PP 215/45/17 front and 245/40/17 rear

demonderrick,

Nope, 17x7.5 with +40 in front is not going to cut it if your car is lowered...send it back!

You need +48 in front with 17x7.5!

If in fact the Advan RG is 17x7.5 with +48mm and 17x8.5 with +50mm, you can run the 215/45/17 front and 245/40/17 rear.

The Volk 17's should be 17x7.5 +48 and 17x8.5 +50mm also...

Why don't you just try mounting it and see for yourself? Take some pics and post them here, too, while you're at it.
