17x7 40mm offset on 215/45/17?

[Kugan]

Recently got into a accident and f*** up both drivers side rims(fell asleep at the wheel and woke up in time to turn and sideswipe a wall.)
Previous owner had 17x8 5zigen fn01rcs with 215/45/17 but I have no idea what the offset is.
He had 1 inch spacers all around too.

Since I'm low on cash after this, I'm looking at getting some nice but cheap looking rims till i can find a pair of 5zigens again.

Looking at getting these

I have no prior knowledge of rim sizes. Been trying to do research but I just want opinions so I don't end up buying a rim that won't fit.

using megan coilovers if that matters

Those are the wrong size, if you have your heart set on those get the 17x9's

[Kugan]

Wouldn't 9's stretch it too much?
Don't really have my heart on anything tbh. What rims would you get?

[PapaSmurf2k3]

Yeah a 9" wheel would stretch the s*** out of a 215 tire. 7" will do just fine. 40mm offset will be quite sunken though.

[Kugan]

Ya thats what I thought. So the 40mm will be sunken in quite a bit?
will the 1 inch spacers help ?

how about these instead?

I run 225/45/17 on my 17x9.75 up front. Tire size is in mm. 25.4mm=1in

225/25.4=8.86 9.75-8.86=0.89

215/25.4=8.46 9.00-8.46=0.54

You have a half of an inch of stretch. That's not too bad. I still have 0.35in more of a stretch. I am not having a competition, I am just showing you that you can do it. I like the stretched look, some don't.

OP, run the 17x9+20 006's with 235/40/17 tires. Thank me later.
