alright....
i had 17x10+12 fn's on my car in the rear... and now i wana run them all around...

i never put them on the front before i sold them

but was wondering if i can do +25 up front instead of +12 and not have to get overfenders?

if i was to do +12 all around i was thinking of getting overfenders in the front.

the car will NOT have 265's or small in the rear. just some FYI

i was think ing of running like 245/35's up front and 285 or 295's in the rear


idk...

i need some help/input on this

pics would be great too.

thanks in advance!!

I think fliprayzin had 17x10+25 up front on his s14. he had to pull the front fenders to fit them, and they didn't pull very cleanly. but maybe he had the +12's not sure.

+25's are going to hit the coilover.

he had +12 in front

there's no reason to have +25 with a spacer, just get the right offset to begin with

+12's are the way to go. i have them on my s13 and they fit great with some negative camber.

Depending on what kind of suspension you have, youll need spacers up front to clear your suspension with the +12mm. You'll need atleast 8mm spacer to push the rim out. Try to go with a 30mm front fenders if you wanna run some fat tires to give you the most clearance. Even then, itll still be pretty close with 245s.

i thought 17 by 10's would look stupid in the front but they actually look really clean and soooooooo nice.

i ran 17X10 +12 with a 10 mm spacer (effectively +2) in the front. It was hood!

Not sure how much narrower stance are compared to MRs. The narrower the coilover, the less spacer you will have to run. Like I said, i had to run atleast 8mm, some people run 10mm.

megans have less clearance than stance. with 17x10 +12 up front you are going to need a 5mm spacer to clear the coil. that should give you about 2mm between the wheel and coilover. you'll also need to run a slightly stretched tire. either slightly stretched tire or bigger spacer.
personally, i'd keep the stock fenders, hammer the lips flat and run a 5mm spacer and a 235/40

Running 235/40 federal 595ss it was enough that at full lock and compressed it would rub the sidewall alittle bit and spray my cage, side mirror and passenger with rubber. It was gangster.
