most people run a 9 +63 in the rear no problem, but i remember seeing a post with a 10 +70, or something like that.

Interested in the CE28N as well. From my reading of the sticky post, it seems like the combination I want to go with is:

F: 17X7.5
R: 17X9

From the wheel fitment guide, it suggested that if I'm to run 225 in the front, I would need at least +53 for offsets. I went on Gruppe-S website and Rays Wheel website but it doesn't seem that Volk makes the 17X7.5 in offsets higher than +50. Would that be a problem? I'm planning on running Esperlir ASD springs & Koni shocks. Here are the websites I was referring to:

Thanks

does anyone know if the 17x7.5 +43 is too aggressive for the front with 225 series tires? I want to know before I place my order. I have Espelir ASD on stock shocks. Would it rub my front fenders?

you'll have to be really careful going up dips/driveways and bumps to make sure you dont get a hyphy fender....
