it will fit. Just to be sure google ''offset calculator''
This black one looks like 17x9.5 can't tell the offset the Fno1rc's have a big hub thing on the back. But I can guess its 0 or +8, I'm really guessing guys.... The white car that's a head scratcher....
Please guys I'm telling you BUY THE RIM HOW YOU WANT IT...... THEN MAKE IT FIT.
all these guys you see on HellaFlush with these crazy stances got the rims how they liked them and made them fit....

The black car wheels are 17x10 with a 25mm offset IIRC.
The White car I'm not sure, but from looking at the picture, I would think the wheels are 17x10 with a 35mm offset.

I'm sure this question has been asked many times over, but I keep getting slightly different information, but does anyone know if the 17x10's will clear stock suspension with 275 tires? I've heard they may hit the trailing arm and I've heard they might snag the fender some....just wanna know wut to be prepared for

It should be fine if you have the right offset (+30 or +35 seems to be the best bet) There are a bunch of people running 275s.
BlueTII is running them:

I'm currently running 17x10s with 255s and they're fine. I'm about to put some 275/40 Hoosiers on them though.

17x10 thats a good choice my friend
Alright. Im gonna order my Weld Magnum 2.0's sometime next week. But I need a little help with fitment before hand.
Wheels will be 15x9" Tires will be 26x11.5, aka 275/50.
Fronts will be 15x3.5" covered in a 25x4.5" tire.
Im not too sure what offest to run on the rears. I know this tire will be about the biggest I can fit, and Im almost sure I will have to pound out parts in the inner wheel tub to clear.
I installed my Hipermax Drag's from my other car. And rolling on stock wheels with 24" tires, the distance from the ground to the top of the fender wheel well, was 25" inches. I might have been able to drop it another 1/2 inch. But anyway. I think a 26" semi slick would look great tucked in about an inch to an inch and a half behind the fender!
Anyway. Sorry for blabbing, Im just proud of my plans with the new car. lol
Just need to know what the best offset will be for a set of 15x9 Weld Magnum 2.0's!

+25 offset or ~5.5" backspacing will center the tire nicely in the wheel well, will need a fender pull/roll, and will clear stock suspension.
The furthest inward I would go is about +30, maybe +35 with that big a tire. I'm not sure at which point it will start hitting your hipermax's

Ive been eyeballing these wheels and was wondering if they would look good? I dont want them sticking out too much, I got a 88 tII.

Front Rims are 17X8.0 +25 offset with about 1 7/8" Lip.
Rear Rims are 17X9.0 +20 offset with about 2.5" Lip.
Hope they dont stick out too much??

offset plays a huge factor though. i have 17x9.5 +15 all around on stock fenders, when i get bigger fenders i plan on getting spacers a little less to match. 15mm spacer with 20mm fronts and 20mm spacer with 30mm rears (so i can actually run 0 camber in the rear)
