RPF1's SBC enkei wheels 17x9 +22

I want to know if this wheel size will fit my 1990 fc3s without using a widebody or rolled fenders. Can anyone please help me?

In the rear yes it will fit, in the front.. probably need someone else's opinion as I'm unsure of that but if it did you'd probably need to run a stretched tire.

Rears,will fit. you can prob. get away with a 255 with a mild pull

I'm running -2.5 camber in front, no pull just mild roll
with no liner and I don't rub with 225/40s with a 9'' +22.

Im not sure what offsets you have to decide from. However, I've got CE28's 17x9 +22 w/ 255/40/17 on the front (well they are still sitting in my room to be put on) and from what ive seen, i may need to run a 5mm spacer depending on how the tires work out (some are wider than others). You will definately need to pull the fenders out or get some kind of wide fender or flare. Ive got corksports panspeed replicas and hopefully they work good.

I assume you are talking on a FC. They will fit, but you need to either have a decent roll or go wide. You might also need a 5mm spacer to clear your suspension. Here is that fitment on my FC.

What would be a good offset for my car excluding the wide body. Perhaps just fender rolls.

you could get away with fender rolls on the rear, they would have to be rolled pretty good though. I think rolling in the front is just silly. Go with some sort of overfender or wide fender.
