As some of you already stated the +42 front offset with these Emotions wont rub with a 215/45/17 tire upto a 2 inch drop, anything more you will rub.. The main issue with getting the 17x7 +42 is that you can run a 5mm spacer and clear the Spoon calipers with these wheels. You will rub though. Using the +47 front you will be ok with 225 fronts but you wont clear a BBK.

 

...im using the 42 offset to clear the spoon calipers....it works fine wit the 3-5mm spacer....havent really ran into any rubbin issues yet....so far so good

 

As long as you have a 205 front tire you should be ok even with the spacer at OEM height. Because if you slap on that 5mm spacer your basically pushing your wheel too a +37 17x7 front which is almost as aggressive as the Spoon 16x7 +35 fronts which is ok with a 1-1.5 inch drop with OEM size tires. I had 225 fronts and rubbed like a bit*h with a 2.5 inch drop...

 

thanks for the heads up

 

So at stock height you are able to go to a 245 and have absolutely no rubbing issues?

If lowered lets say 1-1.5" then 245 would rub and maybe 225 would be fine?
