Just want to make sure
I am looking at getting 17x9 wheels and I have been seeing people going with +35,+42, and +45. I would like to run a 255/40/17 R888 and if not a 245/40/17 R888. I am stock suspension what will fit?
Thanks for looking. |

Define fit? If you want to stay inside the guards and not have any fouling then none of those options will fit with std suspension...
+35 will work but will obviously poke out. |

I don't mind a little poking. I just do not want any rubbing or issues.

+45 will more than likely rub on the stock spring perch with those tires, especially if you want to run some useful camber.

If you're keeping stock suspension, the +35 with 245 or 255 will definitely poke out a bit up front. You can bring it back in with a mild drop and some camber adjustment.
