cadburied Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Hi all, I recently imported a '98 BH5 and was looking to get some different wheels. I was looking at a set of 17x8.5 +30 wheels and the offset troubles me. Does anyone know if I could fit that size with fender work on stock suspension (I'd like to keep the comfort of the bilsteins)? Also, bit of a personal taste question, but do you think that wheels with a lip only look on lowered/stanced cars? For example: would these wheels only look good on a lowered/stanced setup? http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k562/roflcopter207/esr_sr02_white_zpsq2cxrckt.jpg Any help would be much appreciated!

JBisson Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I currently have drag dr38's that are 17x8 with a +47 offset. I am also lowered on h&r springs with no rubbing Front sits pretty flush with the edge of the fender rear is sucked in a bit more Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBisson Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I think your probably going to have to roll your fenders if your going with a 8.5in wheel Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBisson Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 See if you can find the same wheel in 17x8 or see if you can get ahold of one to test fit with Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
