I have a 5 lug setup and Im looking into buying those rims...

Rear: 17*9 35 offsetFront 17*8 35 offset

Will they fit fine esp the 9" one w/ coilovers and z32 brakes?

What tire size do you recommend?

offset way too high...clearing coils might be a problem.

if going with a 9" rear then at least a +20 but +15 is betterif going with a 8" front then at least a +20.

wow... i never knew that i needed that kind of offset to clear coilovers....

The lowest offset they have for 8" is 27... Would that be a big problem?

+15 on a 9" wheel will stick out, front or back.

if you can get 17*8 +27, that would work. And then 17*9 +35 in the back. Be prepared to use spacers though. My friend has to use spacers to clear Z32 brakes on his Typhoons, I don't know the offset, but they are 17*8.

why do you want to stagger though?
