17x7/225 +48 front, 17x9/245 +43 rear.
 
the offset sticky says the front is right on with no rubbing.

the rear is 2mm off, it should be a +45 offset. my question is. with a 17x9 +43 on a 245/40 tire, how close is it really? is the 2mm going to cause some rubbing? and if it does rub a little, is it only on the little fender lip, because i can roll that with that rolling tool tirerack and eastwood have. i'll have the uk spec'd alignment also.

thanks.

also, do those sizes sound fine? i dont want to alter the balance of the car too much, and this looks to be a good setup. and it pushes the wheels right out to the edge so it should look really nice too. the wheels are staggered 2 inches but i opted to choose a 225 tire in the front instead of the 215 to make it a little more neutral.

I would say the the 19X9 ET 43 would be tight. If you are willing to roll the fenders and do the alignment I would think it would work.

well it would be a 17x9 with a 245/40.. MAYBE a 255/40. it's close enough to where rolling it a little should be ok right?
