cause i tried -3 with rolled fenders and it still scraped really hard, but with -4 i have a bit of a gap, so i'll be heading out to try -3.5 soon. And the tires aren't stretched at all.

why would u run -4 for a 17x9 +45...with a rolled fender u shouldnt need more than -3...maybe even less
If you look closely (I missed it too) he's tucking tire. Makes sense to me he'd need -4 to do that on 9 +45

Yeah it'll be just a bit lower soon, so alignment will be needed again.

Test fitted mine today, realized that I needed hub centering rings. Do you guys use them? If so what size do I need to buy?

if you buy aftermarket wheel lugnuts you won't need hubcentric rings.. the lugs will straighten them out because each one is tapered

Thanks, my friend told me that they would vibrate at highway speeds without them, but the tapered thing makes sense.

One last question, do you think that my 17x9 +45's will clear the fenders at stock height? I was planning on rolling them later on before a drop.

Stock height? You will probably be fine...you might look a little funny until you lower / get some camber going though.

Anyone know where I can find red valve stems to replace my blue ones? I found some on ebay but somehow I just don't trust them.
