Hey guys

just spent the last couple hours on google trying to see if this set up will work...

i have a 97 240...

looking at running the following set up:

17x9.75 +25 all 4

i know the rears will work, my question is the fronts... i think i may need a small spacer? anyone want to chime in on this? or would no spacer work?

current have tein coilovers as well

Fuck, did you search at all? People ask about these 9.75 +25 XXR wheels all the damn time.

You'd need spacers up front...how much, not sure since I've never messed with Teins. Could be as lil as 7mm or could be as much 14mm.

yea when i need new tires, im going to be going 255 or 265. current running 235/40r17

i think the rear could use another 5 MM, so looking into spacers to make it work

my reasoning for that was the old rims i had were 17x9 +30, so i stupidly assumed that the new ones 17x9.5 + 30 would work in the front, derp...
