Default Work VSXX advice

looking for some advice on wheel specs for Work VSXX. I'm not looking to do any fender mods and I am lowered about an inch or so on Bilstein coilovers. I know it will be a weak spec wheel but looking to get a flush look . I would like a 17x8, 17x9 if possible and I'm fine with staggered set-up

Thank in advance

maybe a +55 up front and a +63 rear in that case

It won't be flush. If it were, you'd need fender work.

The reason the stock wheels aren't flush is so that they don't contact the fenders. So imitate the stock outboard fitment, with maybe a 5 or 10mm deviation. You have plenty of inboard room

Be careful entering driveways with the front wheels turned.

VSXX doesn't come in 17" anymore. I'm sure there's used sets out there, but the offset on the old ones aren't ideal for remaining stock. I had a set of them back in 2006, got tired of the front rubbing on the inside and sold them.

The 18's have some stock-ish offsets on the work site. https://www.workwheelsusa.com/wp-con...Spec-Sheet.pdf

Flush fitment means fender work. If you don't want to touch your fenders you'll need enough fender lip clearance so roughly 1/2" to 3/4" sunk in.

I have the VS-XX on 18x8 +47 on 215/40/18 and 18x9 +64 on 255/35/18 and they don't rub

They look fine from the side, but there's not much lip

do you have any pics? I looked on fitment industries and saw someone running 18x9 +38 and no rubbing but I'm not sure I believe it lol
