Hey guys Im new to wheels and I found what seems to be a good deal on craigs. What do you guys think of these?

http://losangeles.craigslist.o....html



The Size are 17x7.5 with a +42 offset. Is that good? Or is a - offset better? Also would I put 225s all around since they arent staggered? Would It rub my coilovers? Spacers would solve that right?

those wheels are going to look sunken in. id go with like a 205 or so on that wheel. and yes, the spacers are a way to clear your suspension components.

They're very light, but they don't really make good offsets for 240s.

Not worth it IMO. Those offsets might looks sorta decent on a Honda, but on an S13, it's going to look ridiculous and sunken in. With that size wheel, you might be better off with an offset of +5 or so.......+42 is going to look BAD.

They probably wont even clear your suspension.

I had 17x7 +42's way back in the day and they were VERY close to rubbing. Dont get them, theyll look terrible.
