who is running spacers?
I know the 17x8 +35 works great, so I was thinking of running a 10mm spacers on my +45, so I end up at +35. However, is there any room to go a touch more?
12mm possibly?

You can run 10-12mm spacers just fine then.

nice! I figured the 10mm spacer would work since that makes the wheel a 17x8 +35, and those fit just fine. And another 2mm isn't much.

Think I'll have any issues with rubbing? Eventually I'll bump up to a 245/40/17. I'm lowered about 1.25" inches, with -2 camber on all corners.

Just trying to go as flush as possible without rubbing. I just came from an 18x9 +40, so the +45 looks pretty funny/sunk in right now. People at work are giving me crap haha.

I'm running rpf1 17x8 +45 on track/ax with AP Racing Sprint BBK, -3f/-2.5r camber, 235/40-17 Toyo RA-1, arp extended studs, Ohlins R&T dampers. They fit both without spacers and with 12mm spacers, no rubbing.

sweet. I tried searching through your stuff, but I came up empty handed.

You have any photos of your setup?
