you will need some serious fender work,...roll in the rear and lots of camber,...roll and pull along with a repaint if you in do that in the front or just get wider fenders

why the heck you want spacer? spacers only will bump you out more.

35et is not really good, you'll rub like no tomorrow, can't run decent width tire and running on camber all the time.

definitely agreed.


the ASA AR1's fit and look nice, going with 17x7 +48 and 17x8 +45

i can run a 225/ 45/ 17 up front and a 245/ 45/ 17 in the rear

the only thing is the 17x7's are on back order....

but i thought about it... can i just run 17x8 +45 all around?

I have a set of four 17x8+45 AR1, waiting for new tires. I have a 17x8+48 that fits flush, so I don't expect to have trouble with the +45. I'm only going to run 205 up front to give some stability to the non-staggered wheels. I'm lowered with rolled fenders. Sorry, I can't tell you for sure, but I will know in a couple months.

I do know that a 1" drop on a 17x8+48 -1 camber and a 225/45-17 doesn't rub, if that helps.

18x9.5 with a +35?
at stock height and camber'd/rolled you could get away with it.

no if your gonna change wheels

be sure to do a 215 front and 245 rear, then run a 45 profile front and 40 rear so your sideall is the same size. You can do a 225 front but if your slammed and want less issues or having to bend that one tab,

lol no

its a avg, basically your taking 45% of 215mm to make up your sidewall so on the wider rear you want less % to match.

thus 45% and 40%
