When I look at the 17x8.5" slipstreams, I only see it being available in a 48mm offset? Isn't that too low of an offset for an 8.5" wide rear wheel.

looks like you can also get the boost(ssr comp), torque(emotion) and rev wheels in 17x7/17x8. both look nice

The Torque (Emotion copy) is by far one of the best copy wheels I have seen to date, it's nearly identical looking.

I wish they offered the SDR (NSX copy) in a staggared fittment. It's sick!!

I believe +48 on a 8.5" is borderline. They may stick out slightly, but probably wouldn't look too bad.

question for the offset gurus...

will the torque's fit? 17x8 +48 with a 245/35 es100 (or similar) and 17x7.5 +48 with 225's. i plan on going with a medium drop. and wouldn't want to roll the fenders. any thoughts?



even the circuit 10's are staggered now. doesn't look like the front will fit though. 17x7.5 +45 and 17x7 +38

I've got the 17x7.5" +48 with 225's and they have only rubbed once when I did an auto-x on my street tires. I have H&R springs that drop .75" in front.

The Torque's will fit.

As for the circuit 10s, they will fit as well. I run 17x7.5 +40 and I don't rub and i'm lowered on KW Variant 3s which are dropped about 1.25in in the front.

+48 will be fine.

The 18" CE's are 18x8.5 +47 in the rear and they fit the car. You'll be fine.

And the effective offset on the circuit 10 fronts are only .65mm different than the rears (outside edge) and 3.65mm different than the torques 7.5" +48.

so the torques will fit with those tires i mentioned....good to know.

would the narrower c10 work or would it be better to run the 17x7.5 +45, and simply stagger the tires.

one last question, what is the hub bore diameter needed? there are 2 listed on the jlb site. thanks for all the info! for some reason i just cant get the math of wheels.
