Default Rim Offset Question

i wanted to purchase some 17x8 wheels. the offset that is offered is +35 for the fronts and the backs. will these fit with no clearance issues? Thanks in advance. Oh and im lowered on Tein S-Techs, and i wanted to throw a 225 45 17 tire on there

I don't think a 35 offset is enought. for a 17 x 8

with 40 offset you can fit a 8.5 inch wide rim on the rsx and run 235s.

it'll fit but you might want to roll your rear fenders if you are slaming your ride.

I think the 17x8 at +35 will work. If they were 17x7.5 then I would say +40 offset
minimum.

stick with 40 just to be safe. on my buddy's prelude using stock suspension with a 40 offset(should used 45-48), he would rub whenever he hit a bump.
