ok guys, i'm debating to get some wheels that have +17 offsets all the way around. i really wanted +17 up front and +18 in the back...but these are used wheels at a pretty good price.
is +17 in the back that much of a difference than +18?
does anybody have this setup that can share some pics??
i tried searching, but all that would come up are the threads with +17 in the front and +18 in the back.
thanks for the help fellas.

Don't think 1mm will make much of a diff, go for that rim setup OP
I dunno though ever since I got the springs I've been considering lowering another inch, damn expensive hobby...

thanks saber, i really do appreciate all the photos. car looks good and the +17 offset in the back looks nice, i can't tell any difference at all.
the setup would be for volk GTSs' with 285 tires in the rear. i knew i would have to roll/cut fenders for this setup, i just needed to see how the +17 in the back looked and it looks good.
saber, are you running 285 in the rear? how much are you dropped exactly?
i'm curious as to how you didn't need to cut/roll fenders. no rubbing issues at all?
EDIT: and saber, are you running +17 in the front as well?

You might want to pm "Sizzle". He has the +17/+18 GTS setup on his car and I think it looks sick.

this is why i'm waiting for sabers reply...just wondering if he has 285 in the rear, cuz that would be odd if he didn't have to roll/cut fenders with that setup (even with 275 it's hard to believe).

if you read up top, you'll notice that i'm may be buying used wheels and the setup is +17/+17 (not +18).
Brian..wow bro...i remember when i use to visit o-town and see your car @Racing Zone when you first started modding it...the evolution of your z..i can make a history book out of..with a time line..
I'm running 275s in rear. Don't think uncorrected camber would make my tires not rub considering the widest part of the tire is right under the metal lip on the rear fender. Drop is 1" front 1.2" rear.
