Random question what do you think would be a fair price for some Work Emotion CR Kai 17X8 +32? They are pretty much mint and since ill be putting the stock tires and selling the stock wheels they should hold me off till i get the rays i want.

He wants 900 for them right now, we are going to mount them in a bit with some 235s it has to see how it would look.

but i dont know anything about rim size or tire size and dont know what would be the best fitment without rubbing on the stock suspension set up.
Tire size will make a bit of a difference, but either of those wheels will fit. The 17x8 +48 will fit nicely and look closer to stock. 17x9 +30 is more aggressive and will stick out quite a bit from the fender. That said, mine are 17x9 +28 (2mm farther outward than the ones you linked) and I have 235/45 tires on. My tires run wider than most, and are taller than recommended, yet I still don't rub. I do need some negative camber in front, because it looks a bit silly with all that tire sticking out. With the alignment change, I could probably go lower with no issues. I'm not a big fan of this look, though, and will be switching to 17x8 +48 wheels once I get them painted an wrapped in rubber.

Ok kool thx. I also just got to talk to my local tire shop, the guy there recommended that i go with the 17x8 also, and recommended that i use 235/40/r17 size tire, but the tire i want is not available in that size so he recommended the 245/40/R17 size BF Goodrich tire in the link so im going to for sure go with the 17x8 rim, but any comments on what he recommended for the tire size?

That size is perfect. 245/40-17 is closest to stock tire diameter (so your speedo/odo will read the same as before) and the width is fine for 8" wide wheels. 235/40 is pretty damn close, or even 225/45. Price can change a good amount between sizes, too. The ones I'm looking at are about $80-100 more when going from 225 to 245 width.

Hi guys! I'm considering Enkei Raijin 18" x 8" 45mm on Hankook Ventus V12's (235/40) with TEIN S-Tech's.

I'd like to be as flush as possible with this drop amount... I'm thinking I'll have to run 25mm spacers in the back.

Anyone comment on if this will fitment?

17x9+35 with factory 215/17 Micheline

Will the factory michelines stretch properly over a 9" wheel? Is there a special procedure for inflating stretched tires?

Looks like a mild stretch. They should work.

Fill the tires like normal.
