Will this setup rub? 17" 7,5 35offset with 255x45
Greetings to all. First time posting. I looked through the Wheel Directory and Fitment Guide Chart
But still could not find firm answers. I have Subaru BRZ 2020, stock suspension with stock: Rims: 17"x7 offset 48 Tires: 215x45x17 I want to buy a better looking rims but choice of 5x100 17" ones in my market is extremely limited and vast majority are 35 offset. Setup I'm thinking about: Rims: 17"x7,5 (or 8 max) offset 35 Tires: 225x45x17 Now I used tire calculators and understand that this setup will poke about 2cm (sorry, I'm metric The question I have is whether or not this setup will rub the fenders on stock suspension? Thanks |

Here’s 17x8+35 w 225/45-17 tires. Depends on wheel design, it shouldn’t poke out.
Not a stock suspension, but Cusco struts w Eibach springs giving about 1” drop & as you can see, no rubbing on the fender. |

Thanks for the feedback. I wander if this setup with +35 offset will put alot of stress on bearings or will it be fine?

+35 is not that far off from +48 as some offsets needed for wide-body fitting wheels attrocity. Imho safe enough. Obviously there will be slight load increase on wheel bearings and slight scrub radius increase, but not to killing extent.
