fd. never took pics on car, its incomplete and doesnt look so hot right now. i dont recommend the really low offsets for everyone its just the look i like. it is a tight fit and they do stick out a little bit.

dregg100,
PM'd

7syawedis,
Nice wheels, however stretching a 235/40/17 tire onto a 10" wide wheel is not recommended. Typically those tires are approved for 8.0" to 9.5" wheel widths. You can see that there is too much wheel sticking out beyond the sidewall... 255/40/17 is the best size to get to retain proper overall diameter for the FD and FC.

Talking

trust me i know i even work for a tire company! (goodyear)

im into drifting and burning up wide tires isnt cost effective. it also helps with oversteering to run a smaller tire. why not just use a narrower wheel? because were retards like that and it still has too look good. i wouldnt even buy these wheels without the concave. a lot of people even just like the look of it. thats not even a crazy stretch compared to what a lot of people do.
it works just fine but if or when you go into a curb or something its really going to make it count.

i decided to put up a couple pics anyway. fenders arent even pulled yet just a minor roll. finder liners need to go otherwise it works pretty good. like i said most of you guys want the +35 maybe the +25 if your feeling crazy. i would probably have to raise my car to fit a 255, i might for 245 next time just to see how it works out. hope this helps i would really really recommend these wheels!




the tires are federal 595s

Exclamation

Here are my 225 45 17's stretched onto the 17x10's. Talk about dangerous.
I plan on going to at least a 235 or a 245 if I pull the fenders.

Hikaru, how much for a set of 17x9 +25 and 17x10+25 and +35. Im thinking of putting 17x10's all around.

Mine are +25. The +35's fit nice under the stock FC rear fenders, and you have room for a nice sized tire. But my plan from the get go was to the get the fenders pulled out, thats why I went with a 25 offset.

In my last post I said "if I pull my fender" what I mean is "when I pull the fenders"

Is the 18x9.5 +45 is still available. I'd love to see this setup on all fours!
