3rd gen +32 offset????

Is +32 offset the right size for a 3rd gen? I was looking at some 17x8 SSR integrals with a +32 offset...Is correct for a 3rd gen?

Personally it sounds like not enough...usually you want to stay within 10mm..stock is 50 on a 8 inch rim...so my first instinct would be to pass...I think the fronts will be close to or rubbing..

It is possible that it may work. I have a few Volks that actually hold a +33 on an 8.5 and they reccommend it, but I would not go with it as it sounds too low to me as well and is not worth taking the risk.

I would suggest something in the high +30's to low +40's.

Good luck, Rishie

Are you getting them used or new from tirerack?
If you want special pricing on SSR let me know.
