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

Don't honestly know really. I do know when i had my stock rims and tires on. I drove and got 28 MPG and then i got my rims and tires and drove to a small town 200 miles from here. I drove there and back with a half tank of gas. got 30 MPG. Also was told by people at my dads work. (idiots) but anywho all i know is that it rides a lot smoother then with reg air.
