Hey all, I am seriously considering putting 17x9's on my car. They will be enkei RPF1's which weigh 15.9 lbs. For now this car is going to be a N/A but either a turbo or 20B N/A down the road, and I would like to buy rims only once. I am thinking that this new set-up won't weigh a whole lot more than my phone dials that have 235/60's on them (previous owner did it, not me). I just weighed them, the new tire/wheel combo would weight about 4 pounds more per corner.
And by the way I am going to be runnign corksport front fenders for the needed clearance.

I'm running 16x9s in the rear with no problems.

16x8 in the front and theyrub the fender right now. I have to go corsport to get it to fit right.

I have a crazy offset though (+25mm) with a nice lip, so that doesn't help

Does anyone have opinions about running 9's all the way around?

You really don't need 9's in the front. 8's would do the job all day long. I would go 9's in the back and 8's in the front at the most extreem. Ive ran 8's all the way around before and the fronts were about as wide as could possibly fit.

If you WANT 9's in the front though go for it. Gonna be a little annoying at times and harder to pull of though.

I have stang 8's in the front and they stick out about 1/8th of an inch, i think it would tuck into the fender with camber, im going to find out this sunday, if you want to come find out with me, click the link in my sig.

20b n/a huh?

Probably will just add a turbo once I get my IDA manifold, and LT-8, but hey, hardly anyone else is running a N/A 20B. It would only happen if I got my business off the ground so the car build up would be a write off
