17-18x9???

I'm thinking of getting either 17" or 18" wheels by 9" width...These are my track wheels...What offset do you guys recommend and also tire width???? I also would like to have the wheels at a wider stance. More even with the fender... Anyone know if there will be rubbing problems???

Thanks
Chris

if they are track wheels, i would think you would go with 17s over 18s.

what would be the best offset??? +35??? Is there a way I can modify my well to have a better fitment, like opening the fenders more or something???

Hey everyone...newb here..didn't want to make another thread that might turn into a repost!

2Q:Will these measurements fit on a 4th gen 97-99 max?

18 X 7 1/2 WHEELS BOLT PATTERN 5 X 41/2- OFFSET 35MM.

..And if so..what tires would be ideal?

Thanks.

Larrio used to run 17x9 Enkei wheels on his 5th gen. I can't remember what offset he had, but it might be a good idea to ask him.

I'll try to get hold of him. If anyone else knows the right size where 17x9 fits with no rubbing and the correct offset, also the tire sizes you guys ran would help a lot. I need to buy wheels now since my tire is flat...don't want to spend any money on the stock wheels now...

thanks
