so aesthetically speaking, there would be no real advantage getting the 17x9.5 +38s over the 17x9 +45s for the rears?
bummer...

 

Yea the spokes are the same, +38 is just 14mm more agressive.

 

I love when people truely know what there talking about!

just like dre said, no visual change from 9" +45 to 9.5" +38

outer position is 14mm(13.5mm to be exact ) more extended(aggressive), inner position gains 1mm more clearance.

Nope, 100% real. There is a lack of general knowledge nowadays. It's awsome to see someone who can take any car and have the know-how to have correct/perfect fitment without the use of a general/standard fitment guide or just copying another setup you have seen. Respect brother!

 

im thinking about getting 17x9 all around with a 225 front tire and either 245 or 255 in the back. i have about a half finger gap in the front on megan coilovers..what do i have to do to not destroy my fenders?

 

Full fender roll, make sure to push front tabs up, relocate rear tabs, trim inside of rear bumper down.

I don't mind repeating it, but I feel like I've said it like 100 times

 

^sorry do u mean front fender roll also or just the tabs..i know i have to roll the rear

 

Yes fender roll also. I was just saying make sure to push the tabs up and either tuck the liner behind it or trim it at the very top and let the rivets more to the side hold it on.

 

Will 17x9 +22 have the same concavity as 17x9 +45?

Sorry for the obvious question but I just want to make sure

Thanks for the help
