how aggresive?
you can go, which is most common and you get the sunkface rears but not fronts (gives good contrast IMO)
17x8+45 Front you will need to roll if you go to a 225 and your lowered more then an inch
17x9+45 Rear I reccomend to roll if lowered over an inch and you plan to run a 245 or 255 rear tire, 245 may clear with jsut neg camber but 255 requires both
or slightly more aggresive
17x9+45 Front
17x9+45 Rear I reccomend to roll if lowered over an inch and you plan to run a 245 or 255 rear tire, 245 may clear with jsut neg camber but 255 requires both
or more aggresive
17x9+45 Front or 17x8 +45 Front (same as above)
17x9+38 rear
or the most aggresive RPF1 set-up I have heard of on an S2k
17x9+38 Front and Rear
green= neg camber and roll
red= neg camber and roll and fender flare
I hope this makes sense. Remember this is just my opinion, some people get away without rolling with certain sizes but trial and error sucks so I would roll just to be safe

I read this a couple times actually, im so clueless when it comes to offset its not funny! Plus im new to the RWD...Im coming from FWD. Sorry if I caused a headache.
You saw pics of my car, did you like how they fit??? If so then get those sizes. If you want less worries about rubbing then run a 245/40/17 rear tire instead of a 255/40/17. I really dont know what else to tell you though, just ask me a ??? if you're still confused.
BTW you should read up on offsets in general so you have a better understanding of the a +45 or +38 really is

I have a quick question for everyone, will a 17x9.5" wheel with +38 offset "stick out" exactly the same as a 17x9" wheel with +38 offset?
Thanks in advance.

So you have the same offset in front and rear just a inch wider in the rear correct? Thanks again for the help bro
My front wheel is a 17" wheel that is 8" wide with a +45mm offset.
My rear wheel is a 17" wheel that is 9" wide with a +45mm offset
