Hi guys! Please help!

I impulsively bought ONE PAIR of used CE28N of the size 17"x9.0" +35mm offset because I always love to have CE28N on my FD...

Now I really have to sit down and think about the size of the OTHER PAIR that I need to purchase brand new...

Anyways here are my questions:

1) Whether 17x9 +35 will fit front?
2) Whether 17x9 +35 will fit rear?
(I got told it would so I purchased them. Also the wheel fitment spreadsheet says +31 for rear or +44 for front is the lowest offset I can go with 17x9...)

Because if they can be fitted at the front then I will get exactly the same size for the rear so I can rotate tires.

However, if they can ONLY be fitted to the rear then I will need a different width n offset for the front I guess.

3) If thats the case what is the recommended front wheel size that best match 17x9 +35 at the rear?

Thanks thanks.

Eric.

 

BTW, currently using stock suspension setup.

Please also advice on most suitable tire sizes!

Thank you.

 

Get another 17x9 pair in a +44 or higher and run 255/40-17 all around.

 

heyyy!!!

today just found out the seller made a mistake.. the size is actually 17x9 +23mm offset!!!

****.. would that fit fd still?

so front wheel should be 17x9 and as close to +44mm offset as possible if i want to use 255/40/17 all round?

thanksssssssssssss

 

Oh wow, plaguepunx has that up front but he has rolled fenders and stiff suspension. His tire is a 235 series.

 

afaik 17x9 +35 will fit the front fine..

my fd is still en-route from japan... so going only going on what i have heard...

 

gere are some pictures of work emotions 17x9 +17s with 225/45s






so, 17x9 +25 should fit the front ok..

 

omg.. u manage to fit 17x9 +17 on FD???

alrite. if 17x9 +23 fits the rear. what shd be a matching size for the front?
looking to run the same size tires all round so i can rotate.
thanks

 

that isnt my car... but i have work emotions of the same dimensions to go on mine... when it arrives from japan..

 

same dimension as in 17x9 +17mm or my case 17x9 +23mm?

so u reckon i shd get another pair of 17x9 +23mm for the front too??
and run 235/40/17 front and 255/40/17 rear?

 

as in 17x9 +17... my fd should be here any day now...

17x9 +23 will fit front and rear... just depending on what look you want to go for? ... will not fit with 255s but if you want to stretch 225s on there it will fit fine

 

Stretching 225s??? What's the point of having a 9" wheel and running stock sized 225s? Might as well keep the stock wheels then, eh? These drifter fitments don't work very well because you have to run a lot of negative camber, your wheel bearings take more of a beating, and it looks like ***.

 

looks are subjective..

wears wheel bearings more... doubt it..

who said you have to run lots of camber?

if it fits with 225s so why not? do you really need 255s on the front?

meh, im a drifter.. i run 215/40s on my 17x9s... works for me on the track...drifting and doing grip work too at motorkhna's

 

It depends, if your drifting probaby not, if your trying to go as fast around a race track as you can then yes.

 

thanks guys.

well my fd is my daily driver. i wont be drifting or racing it in the near future.

i just want something 1) comfortable 2) nice looking 3) good performer and doesn't look stupid or anything.

if 17x9 +23 would fit... ok. i want to be able to rotate tires.
so i think i will want 255/40/17 all round.. what shd be the correct width or offset for the front then (since u guys said 17x9 +23 will have problem running 255 at the front)

u guys reckon i can fit 17x9+23 with 255 at front with fender roll?

 

plz tell me the size of the other pair i shd order. whether it is the same size 17x9 +23 or whether it has to be something different.

well rotating tires is not really a big deal actually...

i need to get the other pair that would match fd.

btw, u guys know if ... 17x9 +23 would fit any other car? (skyline? silvia? 350z? supra?) i hope it is something not too uncommon so it wont be too much of an hassle if i decide to sell it in the future. thanks sir!!!!!!

 

You see the +17 above sticking out past the fender. IMO, that's not fitting. A +23 will move the wheel in some compared to that picture above, but I'll bet it will still stick out some past the fender.

The real question is: Is that what you want?

 

yes they will fit....
17x10 +25
235/45/17

 

Hi Mahjik,

Well i guess like most other people. I want to have the wheels in line with the fenders both front and rear. If 17x9 +23 can fit almost in line with the front or rear, then it is fine for me.

Whats your recommendation for the wheel size of the other pair? And tires size.

It would be nice if I can rotate tires but if I cannot its not that a big deal. Currently thinking about having the 17x9 +23mm with 255/40. If that would fit the front then I will just order the same size for the rear, wth same tires..

Hey you know like the recommended offset for 17x9 is approx +45mm, what sort of problem will I run into with +23 offset?

Thanks

Eric

 

Hi Oun,

Are they 17x10 + 25 at the front at well?
They look pretty good.

Did you have ur fenders rolled?

Thanks,
Eric

 

The problem you'll run into is tire sizes. You can run those smaller offsets, but as mentioned above you'll need to use smaller/stretched tires. Here's my car with 17x9 +43 in the front:



The tires are 255's. Now, I could run a lower offset by using a stretched tire but that's just not me.

 

ok some ppl told me 17x9 +23 will not fit 255. i have to go with 225 or 235 then (i assume thats for the front).
what about the other pair guys???

very confused..!

 

yes its 17x10 +25 in the fronts too. rolled w/a baseball bat named "the low offset stick".lol

 

in my case, 17x9 +23 with 225 or 235 at the front..
what do u recommend me to get for the rear, n tires too.
thanks
