offset ???
 
hello folks,

I need your expertise and advise to see if the following will fit. Am not too familiar with offsets and have began some readings. I've tried using the wheel calculator already but am still confused.

here it goes.

the wheels I like comes in 2 sizes.

17x8.5 +20 offset
17x10 +15 offset


I dont plan to *lower my car and am hoping to use our *stock tires, *if possible.

will this configuration fit?

FRONT- 17x8.5 +20 offset
REAR- 17x10 +15 offset (probably will need a wider tires as 225, any recommendations? 255?)

or

front- 17x8.5 +20 offset stock tire 225
rear - 17x8.5 +20 offset stock tire 225


appreciate your feedback.

thanks

Max wheel width for the OEM tire is 8" an wheel.

stock height + stock tires + those wheels = funky looking car

the stock tires will stretch with those wheels, your stock wheel gap will look huge like a hookers poon, and the lower offset with wider wheels on stock suspension will give your car a donk look

lol thats funny thanks for the mental image

how much would you suggest to lower

also any pics of said specs on an frs

there is a fitment chart here with offsets and links to people and how the run them, granted some people like different looks but it might help out get a better idea what you want and how it will look.

thank you
I will have a look at the list

also my bad on the stock tires. they are 215 not 225


from the picture it looks like 17x8.5 w +20 is pretty promissing.
do you know if I can still turn my front wheel w out being lowered?

17x10 would be awesome but the offset is +15 and would prob need widebody kit to make it look normal.

keep in mind the farther out your wheels are the more crap gets picked up and flung onto the side of your car. or get some mudflaps.
