Anyone running 17x9 et25??
guys, I've scouted about but with no joy.
I've got the option of two wheel sizes, 17x9 et25 or 17x8 et35. The car will be on eibach sportlines so -1.5ish drop and probably using 225/45 MAZ3's as I've got a set waiting to go. I know the 8j will be fine but I'd rather go with the wider option if it looks and fits ok. I know it'll poke to some degree, I like a small amount but massive camber and arch rolling isnt an option. Has anyone used 17x9 ET25 with simialr tyres size and drop before?? Thanks in advance. |

there are a few sets of TC105n's in 17x9 +25 but they are rare. There was a thread on here a while back but my searching skills are failing me right now. they ran 245 and poked a bunch. I dont see a good reason to run them. 17x8 will be better for the tire size and will look better.

17x9 +25 TC105Ns here.
Before: After alignment: -2.5 degrees of camber all around. I was sure they would poke but after alignment, they dont really poke. NO fender modifications btw. |

@DuMa can you reconfirm the offsets? I don't see 17x9 5x100 +25 listed. Only for 5x114 +25 or 5x100 +35.

i'll grab a pic of the box later but im sure i have 1 of the only 5 sets left in NA. Gruppe-S originally had this batch of 17x9 +25 5x100. I assume they got it specially made.

I would love to get my hands on some rims that are 17x9 +25. Closest sizes with that tire set-up is located in the thread below just to give you an idea. I would recommend getting coilovers and rear lower control arms so you can fine tune your ride height and camber.

That looks absolutely amazing. I wish they still had +25 TC105n. I just ordered a set of + 35 tc105ns.
