Ok lets see if i can try to explain this.. Lol

I found some 17" wheels i LOVE! they come in..
+35mm Offset and 9" wide FRONT
+20mm Offset and 10" wide REAR

FIRST... my car is lowered 1.4" front and 1.3" rear so is this offset even possible?
Also I have some new 215/45/17s on my oem wheels now and I would assume they will fit the front but what size do I need rear for the 10" wide wheels and keep the 45 size thickness?

Sorry if this is a really dumb question but I just would like some help with this.
Thanks so much!!
IF YOU KNOW WHAT THE MAX OFFSET WITHOUT ISSUES WOULD ME PLEASE POST

My bro ran that rear size in 18s. Had 225 wide tires and that yielded a good stretch. He was low and rolled his rear fenders flat with a slight pull and clambered and it fit. lemme see if I can find a pic

thosae measure ments wil lN OT work easily withthe is fenderwells.


& please dont go crazy with stretching a 215 tire onto a 9 inch rim... thats 2 INCHES wider than stock withthe stock sized tire..... just a BAd iodea... if you MUST follow the fad and go for a stretched setup dont go smaller than a 225 i would even say a 235 on a 9 in ch rim... on a 10 inch rim... you can go as small as a 255-265... but quite frankly fitment will depend LARGELY on the profile of the tires you use.. most newer design tires have a more roiunded " stretched like : profile . for example...:.

I used to run a 245 35 19 bridgestone s03 front and 275/30/19 rears...on 19x8x45 offset fron ts and 19x9.5 55offset rears...

i blew a rear and when i went to buy one thye had been discontinued... the replacement tire from BS was the new Re050A

so i bought a set for the rears inteh same size as the S03....

but hte Re050A is a totally different design Vs a evolution and the profile running the exact same size rear tire was like i ran a 255 Vs a 275... the side walls are "stretched" looking Vs the solid squared shoulders of the S03.... i ended up having to buy a totally new set of fronts to match the rears cause the rears had such a "stretched" look that they made the car loook retarded withj big squared shouilder fronts & the rears withthe new tires looked like the side wall was a 25 vs a 30 visib ly smaller / shorter than the s03.... 1200+ dollars later i had a set of tires that looked right again and a set of 3 S03's that are in killer shapoe but i cant run untill/ unless i find a new or good used 275/30/19 s03...


so TIRE CHOICE will make a differnce BUT... thawont make up for wheels that are just not right for the cars wheel wells etc.

with that front you are looking at a wheel that sits 10mm farther OUT / away from the wheel hub and is 2 inches wider to boot... it will clear the inner suspension fine but the fenders could get nicely trached if you take a drive way at too fast withthe wheels turned so the tire wil lhit the fender.... at the VERY LEAST you would need to pull and roll. shave the fender... and in teh reart it would be e v en worse... unless yopu want to spend a fortune on custom b ody work ... look for a set of these wheels in a more useable 40-45 offset and 8to 9 inch width.

In the rear you have a 3 inch wider wheel offset fully 15mm out away from the oem measurement its just too much with out custom fender work....
