i like the bling that others have chose for their rides...but its time for some tru j car type shit...seriously does anyone know if this offset will work and i will definitely have pics...i have waited for rims and i am glad i waited...i was thinkin 19zz but fuck that i want performance...and i think a smaller non chrome rim with a nice low drop is what i want....i have the perfect rim.....

btw, u wont rub with that setup..unless you bring your girlfriend in the ride...unless u guys broke up, so we can now refer to her as your mom again....with her in the car, u could take off the fender, and u would still manage to rub somehow

fuker...man i'l fuk your weak ass up.

+42 will "fit"... but you will get a "dose" of torque steer from the change in offset -- you will be moving the tire center by 13 mm and you could do better...

The weight isn't bad, but I sure hope you getting forged wheels that weigh 14lbs -- cast wheels that are light don't tend to stand-up too well.

You might want to consider getting into some 17x7.5s, in +48 - +52 to keep the torque steer down. (You could also fit some 235/45-17s -- and align the car, keep the wheel weight down, and still get everything to fit with a half decent drop...

BTW, there is no doubt that a 17x7" will fit with a +42 offset.

The SSRs in a 17x8 +48 weight about 14 lbs each -- and they are semi-solid forged...

The stock rims are around 26lbs each.....)

BTW, a 17x7 +42 would stick out about 1/2 more than the OEM rims.
