17x8 +30, 225/45/17? Options

[dubk]

17x8 +30, 225/45/17 is recommended for stock height flush-ness, but will they clear the rear fenders on a Tein drop with a fender roll? Anyone with experience on this specific size?

[brianforster]

art is using 225/45/17's and he is lowered, im using them and im stock height, so i cant really help much

manny is using them too i think. manny recommended them to art and art to me, and we all love them

[playr158]

those should clear fine

i was able to run 225/35/18s on a 3" drop and never rubbed

cool, do any of you have front/rear pics? just curious on what they look like (sucker for flushness). what wheels are you guys running?

[devilsden97]

only pictures i have that show flushness.

17x8 with a 32mm offset. 225/45/17 tire. Also rocking a Eibach Sportline 2" drop all the way around.

does 45 series look dumb on 17's thats dropped 1.8"? I have 40 series right now, doesn't look too bad but sometimes they look scrawny for my car.

beautiful, my color too. what wheel is that? i'm searching for light(er) weight wheels but could only come up with kosei k1 (17x7.5 +35, 17lbs ea). close to 1k from tirerack.



anyone know what Volk AV3's (17x8) weighs?

Size: 17x7
PCD: 5x100

No problem! I don't have the Artic's though, I have the Hornet's. There's not much of a difference between the two, and I'm sure they'll look great on your car.

my rims are Milia Miglia HT3's in Hyper Grey, u cant get them nemore, there discontinued.

does 45 series look dumb on 17's thats dropped 1.8"? I have 40 series right now, doesn't look too bad but sometimes they look scrawny for my car.

my tires are 45 series. I love the look, and i have the sportlines in my car.
