So I was running 17x8 square setup on my car well one of the rims is now bent. I would like to go back to a staggered setup of 17x8 and 17x9. The 17x9 option is +40 and seems to be harder to find. They offer a 17x9.5 +38. The car is lowered and fenders rolled and tab relocated. in only finding the 17x9 for about 400 but I can find the 17x9.5 for 310. How much harder do you think it will be to fit that 9.5? -3 of camber or less possible?

The 9.5 +38 will fit fine with a 245 and -2.5 ish camber. If you do a 255 you will need to increase negative camber to -3 and possibly more depending on how wide that extreme summer 255 is.

My sig shows a 9.5 +38 rear with a small max summer 245/35/17.

It will stick out 16mm more than my wheels you said wouldn't fit.

Who said... and what wheels?

He was trying to run17x8+35 on a stock height s2000 with 225s in the rear or something like that.

Btw never said they wouldn't fit. As a matter of fact I told you I fit a 17x8 +40. I said it would look funny at stock height.

You are running a 205 tire in the front to "fit" your wheels. This post also does not help the OP in any way.

Thank you junky. Feel more conifident now going with a 9.5 in the back. Preferably running a 255. Reason for more tire and will definitely be extreme summer is because of the boost going into the car now.

Sure thing. If you can find a 9 +40 it would allow you to run a 255 with a bit less camber, which will improve your strait line traction. But a 9.5 +38 will work if that's all you can find, just try and run at least camber as possible. -2 would be ideal, but you will end up closer to -3.

Thanks I'm going to keep looking. Reason for the price difference is they are only offered In SBC for the 9". I just need plain silver. -3 camber isnt to over the top from what it looks like. Pretty reasonable
