Help me make these fit.

17x9.5 +15 fronts with hella pull, hella camber, no glassed overs.

I has extended tie rods only. People are telling me i'm going to kill the **** out of the lca without a spacer.


225 40 Yokohama parada spec s fit? I know the yoko's run narrower than alot of other tires out there. 215 is like a 205 in feddy rubber.

I will try to test fit tomorrow if i have time b4 work.

Thanks guys.

ive never seen a pulled front fender... but yea a 205/40 up front will be mad stretch and help fit if you slam it.


a 17x9.5 +15 is the same as 17x8.5 -10 (my VSXX with 37mm spacer). I rocked 215/40 RT615 in the 8.5 and it was stretched a lil. a 9.5 will stretch a 215/40 sick

So here's my new goal 17x10 +12 with 225 45 all way around. No wide fenders just pull and flare is it possible? should only stick out 16mm more than 17x9 +15

Rears were pulled from the old wheels previously and i did way too much anyway. Spacer is needed to close the gap.

I'm not adding a spacer to the fronts, just the rears to match my pull.
