FC Wheel Fitment Please Help

im looking to order some wheels for my 87 T2. im looking to go with the Enkei RPF01's but i would like to know what the most aggressive offset i can go with (NO WIDE BODY). i will be rolling the fenders(Front & Rear). and i dont want the drift look with the wheel sticking out further then the tire. the car is already dropped with springs. dont know which ones yet.

Since you're just dropped with springs the perfect setup would be

17x8 +35 and 9 +35.

I should have the best prices on Enkeis so PM me when you're ready.

225/45/17 and 255/40/17 to boot.

same difference. Fitment is based on offset and width, diameter is irrelevant if your tire diameters remain the same.

17's or 18's don't matter. it simply changes the profile of the tire from 45 series to 40, or 40 series to 35, etc...

so 8" +35 with a 225
9" +35 with a 255
