Anyone running 17x10 +45 ce28n over any bbks? I get my set in a few weeks and I'll post photos but I've been looking at bbks I understand +44 was designed to fit ALL bbks cause they don't concave and the +45s do. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Depending on the bbk you're gonna have to run 20-25mm spacer to clear it.

Wheels wheels wheels... with the combination of wheel sizes, face configuration, tire sizes, offset, colors, suspension setting, brake clearance issues, over fenders etc. there must be a million zillion different combinations. The sad thing is you can spend a lot of money and it ends up looking like shit or just plan does not work(saw a few in this thread!) I wish I could ride to the corner Volk dealership and try a dozen or so offset/tire/wheel combs. It is a pretty scary thing to order 3k or $4K of wheels not knowing for sure how they are going to fit. Sorry for the rambling but there is point coming here.
When I first got my S(read NUBIE) I bought some Enkei and a StopTech BBK, well the wheels were nice but the BBK did not come close to fitting. I sent the BBK back($300 re-stock fee) and learned a lesson.
Fast forward about 2.5 years, now I am have a ton of mods, boosted, etc and still want that BBK.
Well now I am running Advan RG-Ds, 17X9 +63. I had them powder coated when new to Mag Blue and I am not loving them on my Laguna Blue 06(the would look awesome on GPW or Silverstone). The grand plan is go 18" bronze Volks. Okay back to the Advans. I ran the StopTech template and still needed like a 8mm spacer to make them work. Determined to be where I wanted to be I replaced all four wheel bearings and installed new APR longer studs(did all the work myself except for bearing and lug pressing). At the same time I was doing this I stumbled upon at set of used Downforce 30mm over front fenders(not my color but) so I jumped on them and installed them.
I also happen to find a mis-priced rear RacingBrake BBK OEM rear caliper set for 1/3 of normal price(Amazon fixed the price with 12 hours of me buying and honored my purchase). So any way right now I have 328mm rotors front and rear with the StopTech kit in front.
I installed a 20mm spacer up front as to not only to clear the BBK but because the +63s were lost in the 30mm over fenders. To round out the rear I added 10mm spacers which work okay with the stock rear.
So going forward I would like to run some 18x10(or 9.5) all around with 265s. I want to get away from spacers(at least 20mm spacers). In the rear I will go to some over fenders.
So would if a +44 wheel fits a BBK is safe to say any offset lower than that also fits a BBK? I am thinking a +22 or should I be safe with +35 and use a small 5 to 10mm to custom fit. It has to fit within the 30mm over fenders as there is no rolling fiberglass fenders. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
