    max-min offset rims 17x8 92 2dr coupe??

    whats the maximum and minimum offset i can fit? I'm only lowered about 2 inches on neuspeed sport springs and i dont wanna buy a set of rims and have them not fit..

    Got a link to rims you are thinking about? Any offset with fit, some with more modification than others.

    Some do the 0 offset and you would think with an 8" rim you would want around a decent offset?!?

    The numbers in the top boxes are OEM spec, the numbers in the lower box are what I run on my car.

            Avoid the rotas... Those Volks may have too low of an offset, but may fit with your rolled fenders... Avoid the lower offset.

                The 17x8 with 33 offset compared to my existing setup (205/55R16 +38offset) running a 215/45R17 tire:

                    My rim/tire combo clear the struts, ignore that part of the image as it is not accurate. The 33 offset would be in just as far as my tire/rim combo goes but it pokes 18mm+ more toward the fenders. Mine are not rolled or pulled. So if yours are rolled they most likely will fit.

                        my rear wheels are 16x8 +21 offset. They poke a little bit and I had to add some camber to fit them in the fenders. But it's still a good fitment IMO. I also run 195 tires so they stretch a little bit. Someone around here has some 16x7 or 17x7 0 offset wheels that looked like they fit pretty nice. With an 8 wide wheel though, I wouldn't go lower than a 20 offset or they'll stick out a good ways.

                        I wish I could trade my heart for an extra liver, just so I can drink more and care less.

                          i want the 17x8 with 205s so i get a nice suttle roll look and still the phat grip! but idk the offset stuff because all the sites dont specify if the offset is + or - !

                            this is 90accordlxguy's car (hope he doesn't mind I used his pics.) His front wheels are 17x8 +38 and they look about flush with his fenders. His tire size is 225/45/17.




                            MOST offsets are + sizes. But you can always e-mail them and ask to be sure.
