This was taken from the OP from the Wheel Directory






In my case, I have decided on 17x9 +42 wheels square.


I will be lowered about 1" on coilovers, so no concern of rubbing spring perch, but I'm looking at "perfect flush" measurements of +48 for the front and +38 for the rear


Am I to understand that I will poke 6mm in the front, and sunk in 4mm in the rear? Are those numbers based on 0 camber/factory camber?


If I run 17x9 +42 on all corners with a moderate "hard-cornering" alignment ( ~1.5 front // ~1.0 rear).. will the front really poke? My initial impression was that +42 is a pretty non-aggressive setup. I'd prefer to be slightly sunken in than poking out



You'll be just fine! -1.5 front camber will tuck the top of the tire/wheel and will look great.


I added a 5mm spacer to my rear 9" +42 wheel to make it flush. I'm at -2 rear.
