im looking to purchase a new set and want to get some input on some ep's with 17x9 wheels. What offsets, tire size for example. im looking at xxr 527 but im not sure about the 9.75 width. im staying the factory lug pattern 4x100 for now and was also considering rota grids in the same size with a width of 9. any input would be great. and yes i have searched and have found plenty on other vehicles but none for the ep. thanks!

 

You want hella flush with like a stretched 215's or hella functional with 245's?????

 

ahhh sorry forgot to put that in there. tires will be stretched couple people have told me 215/40's would do me good.

 

Meh, can't help ya there...I guess since that tire is sooo narrow it will help with clearance, maybe like +20/30ish. I'm pretty sure 17x9 +35/45 with 245/40's fit with some decent camber and a lil roll...

 

yeah i plan on rolling the rear and probably alot of camber but i dont wanna order a set and have it not fit! lol

 

Found a pic of a guy running 17x9.5 +16....but it had the one thing that bugs the ****ing **** outta me...3+ degrees rear camber and like MAYBE 1 degree in the front...looks straight retarded like that!

 

where did u find that?

that does look bad

 

i agree, im thinking anything wider then 9 is just to much for this car.

 

If you can tell me the offset to get a 16x8 rim past the rear trailing arm on an EP I'll give you $40 (in 10 $4 installments).

 

+20 had a set of grids fit real good without any problems, front was a diff story.

 

Bah, gotta figure it out.
