Hi ASM experts,

I have a quick question. I have the ASM rear over-fenders coming in soon and will be having my rear quarter panels cut and installed soon. A good deal came up recently for wheels, but they are 17x10 +18, will these fit with no poke or "stanced" fitment? I'm looking for something to fit completely flush and be fully functional. Thank you!

it's gonna be a tight fit even with a shaved rear over inner lip. i'm guessing the rear over will shaved spaced 8-12mm out.
for reference, 9.5J +38 i almost flush without a modified inner lip. gl!

i think you will have to run a stretch tire or a good amount of camber which will retract from the functional setup.

my friend is running modified ASM flares(shaved lip) and is running a 15mm spacer on a 17x9+39 with a 255

which is a final ET of 17x9 +24 and he still rubs just a bit so a 17x10 +18 would be way more aggressive than that.

You're gonna have a hard time fitting that wheel setup with a full size tire. Im running 17x9.5 +12 with a 255/40/17 and it was a pain in the ass to fit. Shaving the inner lip on the ASM over fender is a must.

They come with 235/40/17 tires, not exactly full size, so would that help? So with cut rear quarter panels (cut how many inches?), shaved ASM overfender lip, 235 tires, and a little bit of camber, do you think it would fit without any rubbing issues? Also, my car is not slammed, it is only lowered an inch from stock and will be kept that way for functional reasons.

I hope I'm not being unrealistic just because a good deal popped up.

Just trying to help you out & not trying to be rude, but that's really going to look strange if you're shooting for a "no poke or 'stanced' fitment"


235 on a 10j is already pretty stretched, and @ +18 that's basically Amuse widebody fitment (albeit that's with a 265). If you want a "no poke, all function" fitment, then I'd suggest going something along the lines of +25-35 in a 9.5-10j and running a 255.

It would end up like this:

That actually makes a lot of sense and pretty much align with the research I've done, I guess I'll wait for another deal to come up. Your advice and included picture helped a lot! Thanks man!
