Just wondering what is an aggressive offset to run on a daily driver s2k...

Car is only lowered on 20mm tein springs due to road conditions here...Looking also to try pull off wild colour rim aswell...I have attached a pic of my current setup and also link where somebody photoshopped my wheels for me...

Any help appriciated....

Photoshopped wheels.....

 

Aggressive but not terrible is something in the mid +40's. something like a 17x8 +45 front and 17x9 +45. With a roll you can easily fit a 235 40 17 front and 255 rear with no issues.

 

My current wheels are

17 x 8 +47

17 x 9 +44 concave

Can you go more aggressive than that. Bit lost when it comes to this stuff...

 

Don't fixate on offset alone. A 9.5" wide wheel with +54 offset will have the outside lip at the same location as an 8" wide +35 offset. Which is more "aggressive"?

Narrower wheels allow much less offset, but it doesn't look "aggressive" to me, just stupid...

 

I wouldn't go more aggressive than that. That is perfect sizing since you can run proper tires but it still flush with the fender. Where you should be spending your money is on some good coilovers so you can lower it a little more. It will look totally different with a bit more of a drop. As for the "crazy color" just get those wheels powder coated a different color. Any brighter color would show off the wheel more.

 

Are those the set up with the stretchy tyres on them?

Take a look at the OZ Alleggerita that comes in a lot of colors. They come in 17" and 18". If I can help let me know.

 

It depends on what your idea of aggressive it. A "conservative" aggressive is what I prefer - flush but nothing too crazy - especially on a car that would be driven everyday.

Non-staggered setups look the most aggressive to me - and you gain the ability to rotate your tires. A 17x9 +44 like you have in the rear will fit all around. Likewise, a 17x9+40 can fit with just a little work depending on tire width.

As someone else said, wider wheels don't require as low of an offset number to be as aggressive. I really like how 17x9.5 +38 RPF1s look on these cars.

Any questions, let me know.

No, you be able to run much wider tires on the 9.5" +54 setup with the same tire clearance, vs the 8" +35.

255/40-17 on 9.5" +54 would actually be *less* likely to rub than 225/45-17 on 8" +35. With neither being a "stretch" fitment. The 8" +35 just looks worse (wheels shoved way outboard with skinnyish tires), and has much greater scrub radius (an even bigger negative for low-offset fitments vs. higher-offsets with wider wheels/tires).

 

I'm planning run 17x9 +35 on front and x9.5 +30 rear possible with only a roll?
