17x8 +45offset Is it possible?
I was wondering if you guys know if 17x8 +45 fit in the rear of the CL-S? Is it possible or not. I searched and found a post saying that x8 should not have a offset lower then +48. If you guys can help me out that would be great.

why are you buying a set of 17 inch rims? i think the 01 17inch wheels look great with the 2 different finishes. if you get aftermarket 17s they are going to look too small.

Close, but you should be good. All our cars are different. Mine has 235/45/17 tires and is dropped on Eibachs and doesn't rub, except a little up front on the plastic in the wheel well on turns.
