Wheel and tire package?
 
Looking to upgrade my wheels and was reading over the max fitment section. Guess my question is a few parts but I'd like to run BBS RGR 17 x 9.5 +38 in the back and 17 x 8.5 + 55 in the fronts. I'm wondering how much rolling will need to be done in the rear and whats the max tires size I'm going to be able to run. I'm looking at Nitto NT05's. Thanks for any help! Car made 515 rwhp so trying to get as much tire under neath it as possible with out rubbing. Also car is lowered about an inch.

Edit : Car is a 93 FD

I'm on 275's on a 17x9.5 and no roll, my offset is just a touch higher. I think you should be good to run a 255 or 265 for sure with no roll. worst case scenario - a minor roll would suffice. Dont expect to have to "pull" the fenders ... just a roll would do.

^^ Agreed :icon_tup:


Also tried my 18x9.5 +38 255/35 fronts on the rear and they fit without any modification. I will try to dig up some old pics for reference back before I rolled the rear fenders
