im running 17x9.5 38mm offset 255/40/17s
rear fits fine
front need a 20mm spacer which adds up to 18mm
i doubt the rear will fit at all without massive rolling and a small tire ...my 2 cents

[QUOTE=lexat20;7063611]The easiest method to use this wheel is to use a +38. A 20mm spacer is needed up from but that is it. No fender mods and you can easily run a 255 tire or a 275 with light rear fender work.

+1
I run 18x9.5+38 with 20mm spacer in front on 255/35/18 (RE-01 tires)

didnt used to rub at all but the car sits REALLY low in front now and on really big bumps/dips I can hear a slight rub when the spring compresses enough and hits the fender liner, but f*** it- the look is awesome with lowering springs and even my coilovers (before I went extra low) I had no rub except for at full lock, now the fender liner bottoms out here and there too.

I love these wheels, they look so good in SBC. I want these really bad. I will be going with 18 X 9.5 +15, I will need to pull and roll my fenders...

its too clear the brembos. I am about to throw a set of 265 direzzas on the same wheels. it is going to rub under big bumps in the front, but want as much rubber as possible. I have no experience with alcon calipers, you should measure and compare with washers and see what will fit. good luck

The 17x8.5's, but the face of the wheel will look very different than the ones pictured above.
