ON Please help!!

Hey everyone, I know that this will annoy most of you wheel gurus. I have seen the rim and tire size calculator that Jim lab posted but i cant get it for the life of me.

I came across my all time favourite rims: Advan RG2s and i just wanted to make sure if they will fit my stock bodied FD.

Rims size: 17 x 9.5 (F & R) + 25 offset on all fours

Tire size: 255/40/17

Any help would be greatly appreciated, its a really good deal and didnt want to miss the chance of owning a set.

Thanks in advance
Ken

I'm no wheel guru but I'll try to help, I was answered by Mahjik and read upon what he wrote to me which was super helpful 1st off what type of look are you going for? the Flush look? its when the wheel line meets the body fender line. For the flush look you would need +38 fronts and +42~+44 rears. I'm doing staggered wheels setup with mine so it may be a little different though. 8.5 fronts and 9.5 rears.
