can get a super sweetdeal on enkei rpf1 17x8.5 35 offset wheels. Anytire that these will work with that I WILL not rub??? Thank you!
 
You can try 235/45/17 if you're not lowered. But if you are, I would think 225/45/17 won't rub. Your wheels would just look really small.
 
If not for the good deal, I'd say go with the 17x9 RPFs in 45 offset which if I do my math right, would fit about the same.

Edit: Re did math: You'd get 16mm less inner clearance with the 17x9 but would move outward by 4mm (?)

Hmm well this may not help but i have rota boost in 17x8 et38. Tires are 235/45-17. I am lowered. No problems with rub at all. My next track tires will be 245 or more.
 
I reallu like the mb weapon wheels... I know 1 ms3 owner has done it without rubbing..but all in all how much fender rolling would I need to do and best tires for a 18x8 30 offset thats the highest offset they have for the weapons.
