Assistance needed w/ wheel fitment.
Would one be able to fit staggered rpf1s
(17x9 front; 17x10 rear) offset around 35-38. Would one need spacers? roll fenders? Or any other modifications needed for the wheels to fit without rubbing. (functionally, not doing it for stance) Thank you guys. Any and all information, regarding my question, is greatly appreciated! |

what aspect ratio? not that i have the answer but its an important consideration. if you are doing it for looks then you can probably make it work. if you are doing it for performance, i would advise against it.

I've never seen RPF1's in 10 inch width with 5x100 bolt pattern. Are you planning to use an adapter?

Everything I've read says you'll rub in front if you are close to et42 and use stock suspension with the extra camber you'll get from the springs. et35 would probably fit but they will poke out too much aka won't be flush. Go with 17x8 et 35 instead. Tons of room for big break kits and no one will know they aren't 17x9, especially if you put 235 or even 245 tires on them.
