Default will these fit?

hey all,

im looking for some new wheels and really cant decide what to get, so far the rota svn are my first choice, but will they fit in the sizes i want?

http://www.rotawheels.com/wheels.asp?wheelid=43

im looking at 17x7.5 +48 front and 17x8 +35 rear

from what i have read the fronts will be fine but im stuck on the rears, i dont want to be running stupid camber and eating my tyres, could i get away with rolling the fenders? i will be dropping it about an inch

or would i be better running an 18x8.5 +45 or +48 rear to be safe?

cheers for the help

steve

Front is perfect, rear is too aggressive unless you camber a lot and roll fender and stretch tire.
Get the 8.5+48 for the rear...

I would say the 17X8 35mm offset is going to take some work to fit. You would want to be up to mid 40 offset to fit better.

would it cause any problems running the 7.5x17 +48 front and 8.5x18 +48 rear?

would it affect the handling or compromise anything in anyway?
cheers for the replies
