Okay from what I read some people say 17x9 +45 on stock setup rubs with 245/255 and some do not rub. Yes I have read through all 148 pages....took me almost a week -_-.
I'm running stock setup (I didn't like it lowered for daily).
I'm deciding on rears 17x8 +45 with 255 tire or 17x9 +45 with 255 sumitomo htr ziii.
fronts will 17x7 +45 215
I like the lip on the 17x9 but I'm not sure about the rubbing or if it will stick out too much. I don't want to do any rolling or pulling and no alignment adjustments. Should I go with the 17x8 or it's possible to fit the 17x9 without modification?
Thanks

You shouldn't rub with 17x9 +45 if you're not lowered. If you don't want it to look like its sticking out too much -2 camber will fix that. I know you said you didn't want to do any alignment adjustments but thats really the only thing can will fix that part. You'll probably want to get an aligment anyway if you're going with new wheels/tires.
Also I'm running 245 instead of 255 but I'm pretty sure I can go with a wider tire without any issues.

Anyone know of a good set of red valve stems, after about 5 days they look like this, right know they almost look brass.
Also I'd rather not pay 80$ for rays stems. How are the Enkei ones that the wheels came with holding up? The ones I used are Ebay stems.

I had them for 3 years now and they are still the same color as the day I bought them.

Got mines at Autozone for less than $20. Whoever pays $80 for valve caps deserves to be robbed...again! I had them for 3 years now and they are still the same color as the day I bought them.
