Need Info on 99 JSpec 17" wheels

Did not get any hits in the suspension area so I'm trying here. Does any one know the offset and weight for the 17x8 fr and 17x8.5 r 99 wheels. Will the 17x8.5 fit up front? I would like to go 17x8.5 all the way round with 255s. Is that too much tire in the front. I have stock suspension so would the wheel and tire clear the front or will they rub? What do think of that setup?

Thanks

I think laujesse had a set for sale; you might ask him for the weight/offset of the 99s.

You shouldn't have a problem with 255s up front. I have 255/35/18s and no rubbing all around. I think a 255/40/17 would fit well. There's a bunch of threads comparing aftermarket to stock wheel diameter.

thanks for the link JspecFD

I know the weight now but I also want to know if the 17x8.5 rear wheels will fit up front fo I can run all 4 same wheels. If someone know the offset on these that will be of great help.
