i know it's a long thread, but if you read through the beginning you will gain some knowledge on what others are doing to get their wheels to fit as well as what sizes they are getting to fit.....

quick answer.....no it wont be flush in my opinion, when you consider others having fitments of 10.5"/22 offset, 10"/25 offset, 9.5"/15 offset....<<<<<I believe I remember those correct. These are also lowered on coilovers.

Hey Everyone!
So i got this set up of rims and tires: Enkey Fn01-RC 17x9 +35mm and Dunlop Sportmaxx TT 245/45/17. It's going to arrive next week. Will that look aggressive?

I wanted to go with some 17x10 +25mm but the man at the store where i was buying from it said it would cause problems in the car. Is it true? My ride is low. I got some coil overs i lowered it about 2.5" or 2". Please let me know if 17x10 is a problem or not, cuz if it isnt i'll go to the store right away to change my order!

Thanks

The term "aggressive" in this thread is more about offset then wide tires
