Nuts! What about front ? Rubbing anywhere ? :D

17x9.5+18 driftek on the front.

10/8 coilovers on full hard take care of any scrubbing issues. rear guards are pumped as much as possible without buckling.

still some slight scrubbing issues on the inner guard but the hammer will sort that.

well i have 17*9 + 20 and they sit out of the guards a fair bit. I'm running 235/45/17.

an extra .5 inch would make it .25" on either side of the wheel (6.4mm) then the +18 offset would make it sit 2mm more outwards (compared to mine). So it would be a total of 8mm more than mine.

Also, being 18" instead of 17" would make them closer to the arch in terms of diameter.

Nothing a bit of guard pumpage and tyre stretch won't fix.

I've trial fitted some 17 x 9 +10 Work Meisters (F = 215/45/17, R= 225/45/17) from a mate who is selling them. I love the look of them on the car :( , but just a little concerned about how much rolling/pumping of the guards will need to be done, primarily to the rear with the door aligning so close to the guard. Currently I'm only getting some light scrubbing on the rear with a bit of aggressive driving. How have you guys gone with rolling/flaring of the rear? much paint cracked? or what are yours thoughts as in would I be better off going for some different rims with a better offset?
