Hello, I'm needed to know if would fit. The fronts are 17x7 +35 offset with 215/40 tires. The rears are 17x8 +35 Offset 255/45 tires. Right now I'm running stock suspension. I dont really care if they look sunken, just wanted to make sure if they will fit without rubbing the fenders and suspension. Or would I need to get my fenders rolled to get these to fit? Hmm. just got off the phone with the guy and said they may be 17x7.5 and 17x8.5. But anyways would either size fit? I have until tommorrow night to buy them or he's gonna sell to someone else, so I need some opinions asap.

thanks in advance Wei

You should be good if your on stock suspension.I am assumming this is for an S13(89-94)

You might want to put a smaller tire on the 8in wheel, maybe like a 235 would be ideal.215-255 stagger is going to create major understeer at least for my taste

plus the aspect ratios are screwy

if you run like a 215/45 front and a 235/40 rear youll be ok

Yeah I was just looking at that whoever put those tires on those wheels must have not been thinking too much

215-45F and 235-40R is what I currently run and it looks good in my opinion
