Hi, I have a ST205 GT4 on it's way from Japan.
I wanted to upgrade the Rims and Tires among other things. Now I am sure this has already been answered, but can a 17x8 ET40 Rim with 225/45/17 Tires work good, or do I need spacers? Any info is helpful. Thanks. |

Ok, I received the Rims this morning.
They are actually 17x7.5 - ET42 I am thinking of purchasing 225/45/17 Tires. Will these Rims & Tire combo work on my ST205? |

Do they fit flush or will I need spacers? |
