Default rims question +40 offset all around?

Is anyone using +40 offset all around? I found a set of rims im interested in buying but all 4 rims are the same size. I know for the rear it'll work but what about the front? The rims are 17's btw. Also if you have pics of this offset on your car post em here

that all depends. Whats the width? YOu are very limited to Tire sizes if your running +40 all around with a large width.

Stick with staggered sizes. Make sure there not the same all around. Our cars arent meant for non-staggered.

Since your not wheel savvy yet, your best bet is to run a high conservative offsets for this car until you know what can fit what.

heres a guide...

although, this site is just a reference to stock body AP's, there is plenty you can do to, to run more aggressive.

Oh yeah silly me, the width is 7.5. I was thinking of installing flares for the 1/4 panels later on down the line.

stay staggered man. Please. it's your best bet

wouldn't you rather run a 9 or 10 in the rear and a 7 or 8 up front, than a 7.5 x 4?

or unless you really like these wheels, run a staggered tire in the rear but its not worth it

Its hard to get a good deal on staggered wheels under 1k, but your right. What the hell was I thinking?! I'll just save up, I really wanted to pick up a set of volk te37's in gunmetal but we all know the prices on those

I wouldn't compromise anything on wheels/tires. They're the last things between your car and the road.

Theres a used set on S2KI going for 1800 shipped with tires. I'm not sure if its sold, I saw it a week or two ago. I suggest you frequent there for parts. Alot of wheel/tire sets come up.
