Can i make these work?
Whats up all, quick question, does anyone know if i will be able to run a 17x9 wheels with a +35mm offset? I heard some people saying we cant run anything less than a 43mm offset.. my car is lowered and odviously will be lower or higher once wheels are mounted on.
Thanks guys! I wanna buy wheels asap but these offsets are killing me lol

You can make them work in the rear but the front will be an issue. You will need a fender roll, tab relo and an alignment to make them fit and make sure you do this BEFORE you put the wheels on. The front will really be your issue for this. I have 17x9 +43 in the front and it is flush with the fender and I had to run 2 degrees of camber.

^ Where are you getting your info? A 17x9 +35 will not work without a roll in the front. I have seen people mess up their front fenders with stock wheels and being lowered because the tire caught the fender. If you run that aggressive of an offset you definitely need to roll the fenders. Unless you like having jacked up fenders.
