fitment question
 
Hey guys I was looking into purchasing the ns01 wheel in 17x8 35 offset. I wanted to keep using the stock tires. Will I have issues? Do I need to have my fenders rolled? Was also considering a 1" drop. Any advice is appreciated.

You'll be just fine even on a 1 inch drop, no rolling fenders. With the stock tires you're not changing really anything at all except that the wheels are an inch wider, you may have some stretching but it won't be as bad as with a 17x9 wheel. The main difference with that setup is the offset but otherwise it will fit with no problems.

The stock tires will be pretty stretched on an 8" wheel, but not to the point of it being an issue.

Thanks for the response. What if I don't drop? Will it still be ok. Would the 10mm difference cause rocks or road debris to pop up and hit the paint? Sorry, I'm fairly new to aftermarket wheel set up.

17x8 +35 should fit on stock suspension without issues
