Default RPF1 Fitment

Ok, here's the deal. I bought a set of tires, and later found a front and rear wheel were bent. I've decided to buy an entire set of wheels (RPF1's).

My Front tires are 225/45/17
My Rear tires are 255/40/17


I'm just curious to know what the ideal offset would be for me. I dont want to get aggressive enough to roll my fenders.

Also, will my fronts rub if i get a 48+ Offset?



Thanks,

-Ramsin

Enkei doesn't list a 17x9 +45 on their website. The only 17x9 they list is a +35.
Does anybody know is its possible to still get 17x9 +45s?

I want to run 17x8.5 in the front and 17x9 in the rear.
I would like to run +45 in the front but Enkei's website only lists a +40 and +30 for that size.

If I do have to run a 17x8.5 +40 front and 17x9+35 rear, what tire sizes should I be running? I want to have meatier tires. My front fenders are already rolled, and I don't mind having them pulled out a bit. My rears are untouched but I don't mind getting them rolled and possibly even mildly pulled.

Would it be possible to run tire sizes such as 245/45 front and 255/40 rear with those size and offset wheels?

they make the 17x8, 17x9 + 45 sizes. check in the group buy section. for the tires if you are at stock height you can run a 225/255 combo, if you are lowered at all i would recommend 215/245 + rolled fenders or negative camber.
