Default wheel question

first off i want to see if anyone has any input on a set of wheels i am thinking about ordering. i have decide on getting the 5zigen fn01rc's. i want to get the 17X9's in the back and am wondering what front to get. they have a 17X7 with a +48 offset and they also have a 17X8 with a +43 offset. the 17X9's have a +43 and i know its going to be pushing the limit but i think it will work out. but my question is would you all get the by7's in the front or by8's? i don't want the fronts sticking out wider than the rears or even sticking out at all. but i am wanting to either go with 225 or 215 up front. if i get the 8inch wide wheel i would def. go with the 225 but didn't know if it would sit right on the 7inch wheel? any input would be greatly appreciated.


also anyone ever ordered anything from edgeracing? hows the customer service?

17X7 with a +48, you can put a 225 on it.

I ordered some tires from Edge Racing. The customer service was great. They didn't have the rears in stock (even thought it showed up on their website) and they gave me a call right away, and told me about the problem. I told them, that I needed the tires and I was going to call around to see if anyone else had them. I did find them somewhere else and I called back to Edge Racing and told them I found them and to cancel my order. They had no issues with it at all, and canceled and gave me a full refund with no questions asked.

cool! thanks for the quick reply. i just wanted to make sure it wouldn't buldge out over the rim too much to loose the preformace gain from it. i am going with 255/40/17 for the rears and 225/45/17 for the fronts, and like i said just wanted to make sure it would sit right on the wheel before i ordered anything.

The bulging will depend on the type of tire and sidewall.
