Im lowered on Espiler Springs..

And I want to make sure that they're ok, or I do need to roll my finders.

RPF-1's 17x9 45 offset all 4, and 245/40/17, 255/40/17.

Thanks

hi guys i understand this guide just fine, though it seems there is an in-between range that seems needs better explaining

ex. Front fit

rims size 17x7.5 +45mm >>>> recommended tires (205s), while 205 tires land within +45mm offset regulation, is 7.5" width not at the edge of the 205 tire recommendation?
IF this is the case would 215s be a safe replacement even though the guide say +48mm is recommended? As it seems 205s are better for the rims offset, while 215s are better for the rims width. So the question is, which tire size is correct/best?

Just wondering if some 17*8 +37 will fit. I had these on my RSX-S and I really don't want to get rid of them. I can't remember off the top of my head but I think the tires on them are 225/45. they are in storage right now because I didn't use them in the winter.

Need some help.

Tires are getting bald and want to run the widest tire possible without making it look retarded in the rear. I have a turbo kit, so the more traction, the better.

Wheel sizes are 17X8 +40 in the front and 17x9 +45 in the rear. Not lowered at all on stock suspension. Is a 255 on the front and 275's on the rear out of the question, or ridiculous?

Any help would be appreciated.

I want to buy wheels 18 inches in size 8J, ET50. Will I have a problem because I want to change the suspension.
What tires should I put in order not to rely.

For the front I stopped at 225/40 and 245/35 for the rear
Do you think there will be a problem with these tires, if the car has lowering springs

HELP ME !
