Spacers for a TII with 225/45 R17's...?

Hey!,
I've got a set of 17 x 7.5" wheels for my 1990 TII that I am getting new tires for. The tires will be 225/45 Falken Azenis Sport tires. Does anybody know how much i'll have to space out the front wheels? The wheels have a 43 mm offset at the moment, and my suspension is stock.

Thanks!,
Manolis

I don't think you'll need spacers bro. Also, the wheels will require hubcentric rings. The centerbore for the FC is right around 59 I believe. You just need to find out the diameter of the centerbore on the wheel. that way you'll have the outer diameter and the inner diameter needed to get hubrings.

If you give me this info I can ship some out to you for like $10.00 or something.

FYI, we fit BBS RK's in 8" with +42 and the same size tire. It works fine. Therefore the +43 7.5" should work fine. Try it out and let me know.

Thanks Rishie,
I'll go get a tire mounted today hopefully, and try to throw it on there. I'll let you know what happens!

Maybe they are hubcentric... i'll have to go check again!
Thanks!,
