Default Official Offset, Alignment and Will These Rims Fit Thread

Im sorry to actually have to do this but I think its in order. Im just sick of seeing multiple posts about the same topic so I decided to do something about it. Post up your current specs of rims, specs of alignment, what are you lowered on, and anything else done to make your setup work(rolled fenders, flared fenders, relocated bumper tab, etc).

Yeah, I don't think this one is going to last.

There's just too many variables that go into it. A wheel set up could fit for one person, but then it might not work for me due to my being too low or whatnot.

Enkei RPF-1
Front 17X8 +45 215/45/17 Bridgestone RE050
Rear 17X9 +45 245/40/17 Bridgestone RE050

Bilstein PSS9 Coilovers, have about a finger and a half gap

My fenders are rolled, and bumper tabs trimmed but not relocated. I do rub on the tabs, just haven't had time to relocate yet.

Alignment Specs from Bill Gendron @ Small Fortune Racing Enterprises:
(all numbers with driver in place)
Front camber = -1.75 degrees (or as close as possible, equal side to side)
Front Caster = +4 degrees or as much as possible without losing camber setting
Front toe = 0-1/16 out total

Rear camber = -2 degrees (or as close as possible, equal side to side)
Rear toe = ¼” in total

IF you have any other questions about my setup, PM me.

You know you should keep the front and rear at 1 degree difference. It makes a world of difference in the handling of the car. Before I got the new wheels/tires, I was running -1F/-2.5R. Now I'm running -1.5/-2.5 and the difference is quite drastic.

get 17x8 17x9 in +50 for safe fitment or +43 for aggresive fitment but you'll have to at least roll your rear fenders if you wanted to get more aggressive then that you could fit the +38

I pretty much figured that I would have to max out the offset that are listed for these wheels, I don't want to roll my fenders. lol
