Hey guys.
Basicly how much modification would I need to do to fit 17x7.5 +35 rims??? On eibach springs ..plan on running 2115/45/17 tires.

I found the wheels I want :-) .....my problem is fitment :-( ... The wheels are only available in 17x7.5 +35. I know it's a low offset and won't fit on the stock body... From what ive learned the lowest I can go is +45 so I'm hoping I can fit these with a little camber. I plan on running bridgstine potenza re11a 115/45/17. Don't want too much camber because I want to stay functional and don't want to ruin these tires..... I'm dropped on eibach springs......would rather avoid rolling my fenders......and is that a good functional tire size?? The wheels would be squared...
Should I just find a diffrent rim witha higher offset and are stagard??


Thanx for all your help guys .

 

#1 Its modification not modificatin.

#2 Those wheels are to narrow for the rear. If you are buying 17's you need to at the very least match AP2 oem width which is 7 inches wide front and 8.5 rear. This allows you to run proper sized tires.

#3 Those will fit the rear with a roll and tab relo. The front will be close but would fit with a roll and some camber.

Conclusion is don't waste your money. They are to narrow and will look odd on the car and not perform very well.

 

Thanks for the reply man.
I didn't notice I misspelled it ..English isn't my subject so ima misspell more words hope you guys can forgive me ;-) lol ........but ok not the answer I wanted but the one I expected. I will start looking at other wheels. I Haven't looked at mixing wheel sizes ... Whats your oppinion on running 17x7.5 +35 up front and 18x8 +45 in the rear?? ..would that look odd?? And would it still require the same modification??? Thanks again for all the help.

 

With no fender work and the car lowered, you need to be looking at offsets +55 or higher in 8"/9" widths - not easy to find. I'd suggest looking at Tirerack, they only list conservative fitments so you know just about everything they carry will fit without a fender roll.

 

And even then if you lower you will likely need to roll the front fenders. Also no worries in the misspelling it was actually a funny way to misspell it. Again the oem ap2 wheels are 8.5 for the rear. If you don't have at least that you can't run a 245 correctly and that's what you want. With wheels you want the looks but you also want better grip and performance as well.

 

Ok cool that answers my queistions :-) ... Unfortunately some dumb ass backed into my car >=[ ...thought I had the plates but I'm missing a number.. So I'm stuck with the repairs ......Might have to put the wheels on hold till I fix the car :-( ....on a positive note the hood is already rolled so I might as well roll the fenders ;-) haha .... All jokes aside. Thanks again guys for all the help

 

damn.

 

Do yourself a favor and spend some time reading the forums and learning more about the car. Also if you need wheels that bad find your local subforum and see if someone has a set of OEM ap2 wheels. Can't go wrong with those and you can always sell them when you find aftermarket wheels that fit what you need.
