Brand new topic: FD wheel fitment question...
 
Ok I know there are countless wheel fitment threads out there so I apologize in advance. Yes, I have searched and learned a lot about wheel fitment in the process. However I have not come across anyone running 17x8 +10 front 17x9 +20 rear. I have seen FDs mentioned with the same wheel sizes but in offsets closer to the +30-40 range. Anyone out there running anything closer to what Im looking at? How will this fit/look? Is fender rolling or pulling a must? I do have adjustable coilovers. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

im running a 17x9+30 in my front now and 9.5+15 rear. both front and rear needed a roll. according to the calculator, a 9+30 and an 8+10 are very close in fitment with the 8 sticking out 7.3mm more. so its very close. i ran a 9+15 in the rear once upon a time and the fitment was spot on with a 255/45.

I run 295/30-18 on 18x11 +45 up front which fits the same as 205/50-17 on 17x8 +10.

A 225/45-17 on the 17x9 +20 would fit the same as my rear 295/30-18 on 18x11 +45 as well.

I have to run max front camber and a roll with light pull up front and just a roll without pull in the back with minimum camber.

So it sounds like it can be done with some fender work. I would prefer some wider wheels/tires but these are the first ones I have found in my price range that I like. I have to get the wheels my car came with off quick theyre ugly as hell! I think they are like Mustang bullitt reps or somthing similar. Pic of the rims I want below
