Default Advan RGIII

Hi guys,
I am on the market for some RG3's (S2000 spec) for my '04 RYP
I am debating if I should go with:

17x7.5 +48 (option 1)
Front:
17x8 +54 (option 2)


17x8.5 +51 (with option 1 front)
Rear:
17x9 +63 (with option 2 front)

As of right now my car is all stock with 25k on it. Not planning to mess with fender roll or anything like that.
Which option should I go with? Is the 17x9 a better looking vs the 17x8.5 considering the difference in offset?
Pictures appreciated, if any.
Thanks David

Bruv, stock AP2 wheels are 17x7 and 17x8.5.

If you're not increasing offset and width by some advantageous amount for performance, or for more aggressive looks....you're just essentially spending money on a wheel whose spokes look different.

Option 2 is what I would do also.

Option 2 on both. I would guess these weigh less than the OEM wheels while being wider both front and rear all while getting a different look so I get wanting to change the wheels but not have to deal with rolling fenders.

Are you going to lower the car? If not, don't bother buying wheels.

If you're going to lower the car, option 2 I guess.

I am going to lower the car with cr shocks+swift spring so the car is not going to be crazy low.
So you guys are saying the wheels option 2 will look the best and I will not have to worry about my fenders...

17x9 +63 Front and Rear with a hub centric ring to get you 2mm of spacing.
