Dished rim Q

I wanna get 18's dished rims with a nice fat polished lip. I found a couple then i saw this rim i like but only comes in 17's. It also comes in 27mm offset. Its 17x8. Would i have an issue with it being a 27 mm offset and like a 245/45/17 tire?

You might have to get your fenders rolled. If it does, roll them anyways instead of raising your car up. What rims are you looking at?

5zigen rx6 and typhoon. im leaning towards typhoon bacause it comes in diff widths. RX6 is 7.5 only. Typhoon is 7.5, 8, 9 w/ 27, 35, 43 at 8 and 15, 35, 43 at 9. Will 17's look too small?

It depends on how you pull it off, but in general, the consesus on the .org is yes, they are small. But I like 17's personally and my next set of rims are going to be Sportmax 962 in 17's, maybe 18s. You wanted a nice fat lip, and these rims have them. The face is also inwards so it makes the lip look even bigger. Here is my friend's 240sx with the 17x8 in front and 17x9 in the rears.


If you get a lip like these, you have to have the proper offset to pull them off.

27mm is too low It could work if you roll your fenders or have no drop
