Default couple of questions on my S1s

I hoping to get a new Z here pretty soon. I currently own an S2K and would love to use my S1s from my S2K on my new Z.

heres the specs
17x9 +50
17x10 +45

would 17s look to small? would I be able to use spacers to get the offset low enough and would that be safe?

Thanks,
Ryan

too small and those offsets would be embarassing

Im no wheel expert but those offests seem way high as far as size
the 03-05 base come with 17's if that helps

Definitely get rid of those and buy some that better fit the Z. I've had 2 sets of WORK S1's and since they are stepped lips, 19's appear like 18's from a side profile. I can't imagine what a 17" stepped lip would look like on a Z.......just tiny!

I know the offsets are way too high and id have to get like 20mm spacers and that doesnt seem safe to me.

thanks alot guys for your quick replys, ill prolly end up with some TE37s with the concave face.

TE37's is a good choice...or you could just get another set of S1's

I will indeed have to look to see what a black Z would look like with Gold S1s
