for my Evo8MR, i plan to change to 255/40/17 tyre, now i am considering the following rim and offset.
1. 17x9+35 & 255/40/17
2. 17x9+29 & 255/40/17

for 17x9+35
will it rub inner wall during u-turn ?
need to change front fender to fit in ?

for 17x9+29
need to change front fender to fit in ?

many thanks.
 
it wont scratch your body but then you need to roll your rear fender just minor only.

bro, for 17x9 offset +29 with 255/40/17 tyre,
front fender can fit in no problem ? i mean offset +29 & 255 tyre 17".
rear i think sure need to roll fender. after roll fender, the tyre can rub the inner arch inside the fender or not ?

someone asked this question before in another thread. the feedback is that as long as you use the same size tires, it will be ok even if the offset is different for front and rear. post pics of ur wide rims once u fit it in ur car pls... :biggrin:
 
i have found the answer here :

this is a very useful tool for rim offset and tyre size:
