Ok sounds good i will start looking for a set. And i really like the suspension on the CR is why i don't want to go lower. But i think it would need a little drop even 1 inch would look ok. So i will look at springs as well. thanks for the help guys

jp8ap1 did you have to roll and flare in the front? Is that the 17x8 f and 17x9 rear +45? Looks good !

yup if i knew better i would have gone 17x9 +45 all around for more of an aggressive look, but the 17x9 in the front wont clear a bbk all that well so im find with my 8's. Yes i did roll all four fenders, and for the rears i related the rear bumper tab and trimmed off the extra with a dremmel so there is no rubbing

probably gonna catch some hell for asking this... but

why doesnt anyone just run 17x8+45 all throughout?

you can run 215/245 all on the same width wheel...

and it doesnt seem like there would be rubbing issues in the rear? can anyone say for sure?

8+45 is a standard fitment according to tire rack. That will fit with a 245/40 with no mods. Alot of guys want a more wider and aggresive wheel if they are buying ftermarket wheels. Plus with the 9 +45 u get a little concave instead of flat spokes.

The 8+45 only extends 23mm from a oem ap2 fitment! So they will fit with no mods.

Hmm something to think about... thanks dude

although.. got an offer to roll for 50 dollars. might be more worth it to be able to get a wider tire on..
