Best off sets for 17" aftermarket wheels
Whats the best offsets for 17" wheels? Ive seen some have ET35 and some use ET40? Looking into aftermarket wheels...Dont want to run into rubbing issues...Thanks

Assuming stock 17x7 wheels then +40 to 45mm is better. 35mm would stick out.
if 17x8 rims then et 35 would be OK
not at all. im running 17x7.5 et38 and they dont even stick out past the fenders. But thats only like 1/8" inside and out bigger
et's in the 40s are too far inward in my opinion. A lot of people put 12mm spacers on thier stock et48 wheels to get 36, since 35 fits very well in a 7 or 7.5" wide wheel

Do you know the specs? The only pure silver r53 on 17" rs's I know of runs 9.5", maybe et 25. In the rear anyway. Looks like it might be a different car though.
AWESOME! Those rs's look nice! Best stance though is rally's clubman
