I have looked high and low for information regarding this Wed wheel.

Has anyone used this exact wheel with a 255/40/17 tire? again I have searched and searched, there is little to not so convincing information on this Wed wheel / tire combo. I will also be installing BC (BR) coilovers and fender rolling if it has to be done isn't an issue(it would be nice to know if its a must do tho). I just need to know if anyone has had any success with this exact wheel /tire setup!

Will this offset be more tucked, flushed or stick out?

 

I am running the 17x9+35 and I think they fit perfect. They are tucked just a little bit. I am running evox LCA and I can still clear my factory fender with only 2.5* of camber in the front. The rears clear without a roll. I am also on a 255.

All the pics I have see of the +25 look like they sit flush. I would rather have them a little tucked, and only have to do a very mild roll if anything. So if you look at the +35pics, you will more or less need to add .5" to the offset, and that is what it will look like.

 

first off SWEET 8!!! and thx for the getting back! the fronts look pretty close? and there isn't any spacers?

 

Rear does NOT need a spacer.


Front REQUIRES a 3mm spacer to clear the brembos.




I am running evox LCA, which make the front control arms .5" wider. If you use the gray car from the first link he would have the best 17x9+35 setup. I used his pics as a guide for my car.

 

again thx Boz, best info in a long time!

 

17x9 +25 w/255/40 is doable regarding fitment, providing the rears are roll, pulled & bumper bolt relocate (if the wheel was a 9.5" I would have told you that proper fitment is going to be tough & would not recommend it)

The noted +35 would be much easier to fit but will not be as flushed out

 

I'm 17x9 +27. used to have a 255/40 rear tire, went to a 245/40 and the look is near identical but no clearance issues what-so-ever with rolled rears. fronts dont rub

255/40 rubbed on the rear but I wasn't rolled. they'd probably be fine now that my rears are rolled but i didn't have them for long

 

thx fellas, exactly what I was looking for honest useful information!!!

 

 

I'm running 17x9.5 +17 on my Work Emotion wheels. I'm also trying to sell them if you're every interested. Comes with new tires with 1k miles on them.

 

^^^Hey Erik. We meet again LOL

What tires are mounted & let us know what rear fender work has been done (any rear rub at all)?

 

Here is my co workers old car with 17x9.5 with the 255/40. No fitment issues that I remember.

I did just pick up a set of TC105ns for myself but they are 18x9.5 +35. I shouldn't need spacers front or rear which is nice coming from my RPF1s.
