I want to buy Rota Subzero 17" but it only come with offset 45mm.The price only 550/set and it weight 16.5lb. My only concern is the offset.
Anyone with the same offset please tell me will it flush with the fender?

Thanks

45mm is not flush, 40 is not flush, 35/32 is flush. &nbsp;rota dont' make the right offset for our cars...

Not only will it not be flush. It will come close to hitting the strut with 215 tires. Probably would fit though. With wheels only 7 inches wide you would need to be in the 20s to actually be flush.

hmm with 45mm offset &nbsp;it will not flush at all. try to get some other wheels caues i think rota subzero sux. try to get Volk racing they have many wheels that have off set that will flush to ur fender.. but u will have to pay alot more . so try to get somewhere around 30mm offset then it will flush perfect ..

The factory wheels for the S14 have 40mm offset on the 15x6 steel wheel and 16x6.5 SE wheel. A 40mm offset should work as long as the rim isn't wider than a 7.5".

I would say get somthing with low +30's offset to get the flush look. I am running 17x8's with +30 offset right now and it sits pretty flush. I actully think i can go a bit lower in front like high 20s and be ok.

right now i am running 17x8 typhoons with a 35 offset with 215/45/17 tires, the back tucks, but the front sits so flush the only way i can get wheel tuck is to adjust the camber.
