  • Was gonna wait till after paint for these. Lots of pics.

    Well I couldn't wait. Had to see how they look. TSW nurburgrings 17x8 35mm offset and 17x9 50mm offset. Useing 1.5" adapters in front and 2" rear. useing the tires off my other 17's, 245/45 and 255/50.

    I like em!

    I would move to a 1.5 spacer in the back if it were me, 1. 2 inches is a huge space. and 2. id like to see the wheels tucked under the car a little better. But thats just me.


    Looks good!

      1.5 adapters wont clear my longer rear studs, and I don't want to cut them. The edge of the tread is just inside the fender lip. It wont rub unless the car comes straight down hard. I have stiffer progressive rate springs.

          The rear tire seems a bit too tall. Other than that, I think it should look good!

                My speedo is very close with this size tire and 373 gears. Rear tire is about 1 and 3/8" taller than the front. I thought about going with 275/40 in the rear but they are slightly shorter than 245/45.

                  It's hard to get the speedos right these days with T5's. I had to make my own gear so I could run 3.42's and a stock sized tire. 275/40's are only a quarter of an inch smaller that what is up front, 275/45 wouldn't be as tall as what you have now, and a 255/45 would be right at home But that's just me. I'm very picky when it comes to rims/tires

                    Alot of people have told me my rears were too tall for the look I am going for. So I decided to switch to 275/40. I guess it does look better. Still not painted, hopefully soon.

                            I like the look. Like the rims too.

                            What color are you going to paint it?
