I'm looking to do a nice 17x9 rims next year in the front and I was wondering if I will have any issues?

The offset if +24 with a backspace of 5.95"

Can anyone see any issues with this setup?

That depends on what you call "fit". That's not a traditional fitment and will limit your tire choices on stock FD fenders. You could probably make it fit by using stretched tires and some extreme camber settings.

FWIW, here's my 17x9 +43:



A +24 would give you about .8" more outwards.

If it is an FC that +24 is the perfect offset for a 17x9 up front and will fit a 255/40-17 with lots of negative camber from coilovers and a mild front fender roll.

prolly wanna specify which car you own...
its a common wheel for FCs, FD's would be 'hella flush' or whatever

Sorry I forgot all about that.

I have a jdm fd.

I know I need to change my suspension before I can run these but I figured I'd ask before I try.

I plan on running a set of tein mono flex coilovers and rolling the fenders.

So no one else sees any problems with me running these?

I bought this up before but the thread is gone now, I also want to run a 17x10.5 in the rear and the only issue that was bought up would be I would have to rock an over fender. I have no issues with that I just want to make sure again before I go and start cutting up my car that I will have no issues when I do it. If anyone has any advice it would be appreciated.

My plans are if everything works out I might just raise my suspension that little extra and have a bit of tire sticking out of the fenders. The car is just a stock DD but I want it to look bad ***.

Thanks for your time guys.

No, just like the 9" up front the 10.5" in the rear will fit an FD easy with the RIGHT OFFSET.
You need to find rims with the right offset instead of whatever rim you can find and "make it fit".

Ok sweet. and as for the make it fit comment I was just wondering cause last time i posted and asked if it would fit on the rear everyone said i would need over fenders which I was cool with, I just wanted to make sure again. The offset on the rear is +20 so it will be fun.

I'll probably just try to roll the hell out of the rear fender to get the clearance I need. If I crack the paint it will be ok cause that spot was done with a can of tremclad rust paint cause when I bought the car is had "JDM" damage and I didn't want to rock a primer spot cause I was on a tight budget to get it fixed.

Thanks for the info and time again. If anyone else has anything to add feel free to do so.

I am looking into the rims still and im pretty much sold on them, I am just wondering if i should get the package deal with tires pre mounted or buy the tires when I get the rims.

The main concern for me is the rims will be mounted with a 275/40/17 tire on the 9" rim and a 315/35/17 on the 10.5.

Can I run these tires without much issue? I am probably going to raise the car up enough where I don't have to worry as much about fender issues but I do plan on rolling the fenders no matter the plans.

Thanks for the info in advance again. Your input is always helpful
