i run 7 inch wide on a 43 and it sits flush enough for me

if I go any more flush my tires rub the rear fender lip. Hell,they are rolled and I was still rubbing on hard turns on a canyon run with my new dunlops on. they run wider than the falkens did

I spent a month trying to pick a wheel I like at a good price so Im happy with them. They go with the car perfectly imo. They arent light but arent as heavy as the stocks either. Not sure on exact weight.

my wheels aren't really aggressive (50offset) but sit perfectly flush. My goal is to tuck them like a 3 series bimmer

I'd say that truck behind the MSP has some pretty aggressive fitment. (lol2)

so would a 215-45-17 rub on a +40 offset?!?!?!? I am lowered on tein S-tech springs. I ran a +42 with a 225-45-17 falken azeni tire which are notorious for being wider than their rating and I barely rubbed in the rear...

Anyone running spacers on the stock RH's? Man I'm diggin the agressive stance on the EVO and Subbie. Looks like the new trend these days.

Really like this picture man.

Side note, I want to consider going with a 10mm spacer for 45offset 17.x7.5 and run a 215 45-17. I run 225 now and it rubs slightly when I hit hard bumps fast enough. I think I need more neg camber too though. Thoughts?

I run 18x7.5 +42 offset right now with a 215/35/18 tire. I'm going to go with 225/40/18 tires next. I think that should give me exactly what I want
