I have 17" enkie rims but they are somewhat more inside the fender wall. Do you know what is a good width of the rims like 7.5 or 8 or 8.5 ? But I don't want it to stick out beyond the fender, I just want it as close to the fender without leveling with the fender.

with offset 35 and 8.5" wide, looks perfect


That's what I have with a 19" rim and Toyo T1-S 245/35/zr19 tires and I love the look biggrin.gif

If anyone is missing NASCAR and it's not on Speed Channel, take a fistful of Skittles, throw them in the toilet and hit the flush handle. Instant NASCAR!!!

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
