88FcNA you're saying you have the 9.75's all the way around?

and they stick out of the fenders?

i'm kinda going for the flush look

I have xxr 527s, 225/45/17x8s +25 in the front and 235/45/17x9's in the back. they are a lil big and are bout quarter inch from rubbing my coilovers (BC racing). I wish they were a lil smaller but this is what they look like with no rolled finders, and cambered in. I am going to roll my fenders and get spacers and go a lil lower. Ill pose pics then but this is them now.
(idk if the pics are gonna work)

I personally think the 8.25's up front look really small but that is just me

Looks good! but I think I like my xxr 522s look just as good with my setup. I'll post a pic, but I have been contemplating these wheels. Idk what size or color I'd go with since I'm 4 lug but have a 5 lug set up sitting around.

xxr527 17x8.25 all around with 255 40 r17 tires all around...

i gotta say im getting the 9.75 for the rears. the 8.25 are flush on the front but sink in on the rears. dont know why ur guy's wheels look like they stick out more than mine but here you go...

Just to make sure mzrx7man, those are the +25's and not the +35's? That looks pretty good, maybe a 10mm spacer in the rear.

Options are 8.25 and 9.75, putting a 215 on either one would be bad.

215 would be fine if you have coilovers to adjust your height to were you would like it to be. Shouldn't have any problems, with the right offset you can fit 225's and the ways around easily with no clearance problems on stock body. mzrx7man to answer your question no it was from a previous poster. you should pm them.

edit: also know from past experiences you can fit a 255 in the rear but it is such a tight fit. thats on stock body fc.

How would you stretch a 215 tire on almost a 10" wheel? Better question, why would you ever want to?

because some people want to do flush fit and at the right offset that would be perfect for how stretched it would need to be.
