This should probably be in the "wanted to buy" section. Also, I think the offsets you're looking at fit the stock fenders. You may want something a lot more aggressive with a widebody kit.

I made a post in the WTB as well just seeing if the Tire Rack area had any info... Also what off sets would you all suggest that are available by Volk?

The Spoon widebody makes the front fenders 25mm wider and the rears 15mm wider up top and 18mm wider at the bottom... what offsets and widths would fit these flush? I had seen that Spoon was running the CE28s with the offsets in my original post but if anyone who knows how to size wheels for the S2K would suggest anything bigger let me know. I was just going to run these with 10mm spacers all around. I wouldn't want anything wider than 10 inches in the rear and 8 inches out front... what offset would be best? I want the Volks so keep in mind it has to be a size they make... thanks!

My Volk RE30's are 17x8 +50 and 17x9 +63 for a stock fit. Your front size of +44 will stick out 6mm more (if I understand how this works) but your rears w/+63 will look tucked in with a wide body kit.

Why don't you contact one of the Volk dealers and tell them about your set up and I'm sure they can recommend the proper off sets. While Tire Rack sells a Volk wheel, they don't carry the whole lineup like other sponsors here on the forum do. FWIW I bought mine from Steve at Evolution. His price was great, and he is very helpful.

I have a set of CE28's with 17x8 +44 and 17x9+54 that I will be selling once my new rims get here. They're in bronze though. They have 85% left on the tires - Advan AD07 (Neova). I don't know when my rims are due in though. Custom ordered through Mackin. Tire size is 235/40R17 and back is 255/40 17.

youll want to run more rear offset than the + 63 to look right with the wide fenders.
