FD with 17x8+35 offset front & 17x10+35 offset rear
Wondering if this is possible on a FD,
Front 17x8+35 offset with 245/45WR17 tires
Rear 17x10+35 offset with 275/40WR17 tires
Or
Rear 17x9.5+38 offset with " same as above" tires
Or
Rear 17x9+35 offset with "same as above" tires
I doubt the rear 17x10 will fit.
Any insight on this would help me out.
Thanks, Nichles

Pick a different model of wheels, those don't fit.
17x8 +35 will likely catch the fender lip. A 235/45 is the best tire choice for that wheel size.
17x10 +35 offset -- no way in hell
17x9.5 +38 will work with 255/40, will likely be really close with 265/40.
Like I said, I would look for a more FD friendly wheel model. Tell us what models you like the styling of, your budget, and what you use the car for and we'll help you out. You should also go through the big threads in the archives -- set the view to "from the beginning".
