Default ASM rear flares with IG V1 fronts

ASM rear flares are 25mm and the IG V1 fronts advertise 30mm

im looking at some Advan RZII 17x10 +50
I thought I read this to be a good spec for the ASM rears, was wondering what you thought about the extra 5mm upfront and what tires?

6.2 ls3 swap. Looking for extra meat with the tires but want a “conservative” flare option/appearance.

Thanks! ... I really suck at wheel fitment.

That's a pretty conservative offset for the fenders and you may end up adding some reasonable-thickness spacers to fill them out more, but it's in the ballpark.

Ya, researching back into the threads its seems like it would be better in the +38-40 ??

I was checking DF fenders because they advertise same 30mm as IG. And also looking at the ASM flares.

I run ASM rear flares and Dorwnforce fronts. Wheel specs are 17x9 +43 with a 245 front and 17x10 +35 with a 255 rear. 17x10 +50 needs rolled fenders but no need for flares to fit those. I don't know what IG stands for?

Run 275/40 in the rear. You got the room and you will like the added traction/gearing for your v8 swap. Stick to the 255 up front.

If your goal is functionality over maximum outer flushness, then yes on those tires and wheels spec and you will have enough room to run a 275 up front too if you want. In all rights you still have a little outer room to play with front and rear, about 10mm. So you would be safe to run a +40 if those wheels come in that spec. Otherwise there is the spacer option. Or just leave alone. Of course if it were me, Id be running a wider rear wheel to accommodate a 315

Im thinkn of running this in the rear at either a 10.5 or 11” wide. Witg ASM rears a +35 offset would work?

If I decide to stay 17” does that change the offset I want or can safely run?


With these fronts what offset should I shoot for? I dustry garage V1 flares. Thanks all. Max width I can go is 9.5 because of swap outer tie rods and Eps re location.

thats niice. See thats what I think may be the difference between what works with a 17” and a different offset for 18” working well. That looks like the new spoon bumper to!
