could you post some closer pics of the front wheel fitment? I'm liking of putting 235/45/17 on some 17x9 wheels

dvdevo · 05-22-2005, 12:10 AM

looks pretty coo..shoulda tried to find the one with the polished lip oh well.

Irukandji · 05-22-2005, 01:21 AM

they look great!

limo tint the windows now.

you people need to stop being so bitchy about offsets, the car looks great, not everyone needs -28 18x11.5 Work Meister S1s on their daily drivers. hell, half the people that bitching about offsets of other people wheels are running stock wheels themselves.

anyway, car looks awesome.

If I posted up the fronts being 17x8.5 +22, people would be more accepting of the offset and size, but in reality the outer edge of the wheel is the exact same distance from the hub. The 17x9 +35 is flush with the side of the car and matches the rear perfectly.

I'd like to get a better pic, but that was my phone camera so no can do.

thanks for the compliments. I had to get flat black because im worried about flashiness. The 17k i've spent on my motor isnt really insured at all so getting this car jacked would ruin me.

the rear sunken spokes looks hot, not sure about the front though!

Could not have looked any better

you know, i know a coupel guys with those wheels.....but you fools make it look like every man with a 240 owns em'. I honestly hardly see those on the street. and actually those offsets look like the fit really nicely

Looks good to me. Better than stock and it's not some chrome 19s or something..hehe damn appreciate those who make their cars look good instead of bashing fellow 240 owners.

His money, his choices, his preferences. same applies for you

aznpoopy · 05-26-2005, 02:41 PM

they look fine.

without a better angle shot its hard to tell, but it looks like the fronts dont come out as far as the rears. nothing a spacer wouldn't fix.

i'm late on the reply.

even though the offset on a 9+35 vs a 6+40 is similar, the actual fitment is completely different. the 9+35 should come about 2 inches (40 some mm) closer to the fender. that is a big ass difference. offset doesn't mean *anything* independent of wheel width.
