cheers for the help

It might hit. Stevan had rear trailing arm contact with that specification and so have various people on ClubRSX, it is very ride height and camber sensitive. You might have issues you might not, plenty of people have no problem.

I have never seen 17x9 +40 fit without a spacer, and have seen +38 need a spacer. I wouldn't risk an offset that high.

"I wouldn't risk an offset that high." Is that regarding the +38 or +35? or both? haha


what would be a better option, 17x8 +38 or 17x9 +35??

[M@lew]

17x7 +42 for you DJ.

im planning on getting 18x9.5+20 for my dc5r running it all four, im running BC BR coilovers at the moment and im gonna have to roll my rear guards what else would i have to do it make it fit? do i need to get tie rods?

What would I need to do to fit 17x9+35 on 235/45 tyres for a DC5S?

was originally going with 235/40 but limited selection. 45 profile too high?

Edit: 1.5 finger gap atm

[fatboyz39]

45 are ok better option would be 40.

Not sure on the suspension mods to make them fit, I don't have any experience with the BC BRs but you should be able to get them in with slightly stretched tyres, some camber, rolled rear guards and trimmed fenderliners at the front.

I agree with fatboyz, a 235/45 is a fairly beefy tyre, have you considered going with a 245/40? There is a good selection in that size.

I have considered grabbing 245/40 but would clearance be difficult if i wanted to keep my front guards stock and use camber bolts (im dropped on shocks/springs)? I know stevan has 235/40 and doesn't have much clearance between and wheel and strut, and apparently progressive springs are a lot wider than coilover springs.

any idea what i'd need to do to fit 245/40 on 1.5 finger gap?

[fatboyz39]

245/40 should be Ok? it'll only be 5mm wider.

[p33r]

Yes but I would like to know exactly what would need to be done (amount camber, rolling guards etc) to make it work on a shock/spring combo. Since most ppl have coilovers.
