hey as some of you may know i have been looking for a set of 16 inch wheels for awhile now and there just isnt that much available that i like.so i started looking at 17's and i saw these and i LOVE the look.they are the KONIG runaways in 17x8 with 35mm offset.

Image

would these fit without spacers considering the offset and width??
i tried searching on here and srt forums and have not found anyone running these.so some ideas would be nice cause i am not in anyways a expert on the whole width offset thing with our cars.so let me know :thumbup:

I really like those. I wish I could tell you for sure about your offset choice. I think 35 would be ok. IIRC, rule of thumb on stock (non coil-overs) is 38. 35 would move you outward a bit, which is a good thing on our cars :D

Those are nice ass rims. I hope that offsett works on your car.

The offset may work but you'll have to run a rubber band to clear your struts....

thanks for all the input.not worried bout struts though.going either bags or coilovers after the first of the year.and that will be around the time when i can afford to buy the wheels also.so it should work out.i only want to run a 215/40 on it anyways so it should be fine :lol:
