im trying to figure out what would push my rims out more so that they are flush with the body. i think my current rims are 40offset 7in wide. if i get a 25mm spacer, that will push them out about 1 inch.
now my other option is to get 17x8s with 35 offset. i used the offset calculator, and it tells me that the differece between the new rims and my old ones would only be 18mm http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp so, am i missing something here? the spacer would push the wheels out the most, right? -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

i have 18x8 with eibach pro's and they sit flush with the car but if you want performance go 17X8 the best of both worlds
