I would go +28 cause more clearance for the brake caliper.

I remember someone tried the 18X9 +35 and had to run spacers. I know the 17x8 +28 fits with no spacers.

go with the +28.. more clearance between the wheel spokes and the brake caliper. And on top of that, the car will look more aggressive with wheels push out a lil bit

^ is your car lowered and if so did you have to roll your fenders? I'd think a +28 offset and a lowered car would require some rollin, am I wrong?

its on Top Secret coilovers (so yes its lowered some). i have stiff springs so there is little travel in the back wheels. i have the wheel sitting a little below the fender, no rolling needed, its almost completely flush. if your trying to get it to sit completely inside the fender rolling might be nessacary.

this thread has pictures. the car is currently sitting a little over one inch lower (and a little camber). https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=277731

I kinda like the QFs if theyre really that light... I'll have to call BC USA and see if the +28 offset is really needed. I wish the +35 would work. I just hate how much more crap gets kicked up on the side of the car with +30 or lower lol

*edit* I got to thinking that if I stayed with the stock size of 17x8 the +28 offset may not be that bad if needed.. ~14lbs is pretty sweet.
