"These are called the Retro 2’s and there’s no need to explain why. These will come in 17×9 5×100 +42. You saw it here first at wheeldude.com. "







Hmmm...I like the conservative offset, but how tight is 17x9 going to fit on stock struts/springs with a +42 offset? That's only 6mm further outboard than stock. Add the extra 25.4 mm of the extra width on the inside lip, and you're nearly two full centimeters closer to the strut. Is there enough clearance? Is the issue of clearance with the wheel itself, or the tire? I just bought camber bolts too - will I be able to use them?
