G-Games 17x7's

[azeli73]

I'm lowered on Eibach's. G-Games 77W come in a 42 offset. Thinking 205/40/17's... There are a few people running this offset and tire and I want to hear if you rub at all. I know 215's are a no no...

from what i hear, you won't rub unless you have people in the back or go over a large bump. and yes, 215 i a no no. i want the arospeed rs-gt's but they only come in a +42.

And are you on any drop?

I have Tein H. Tech springs. Wheels are 17x7, 42 offset, tires are 205/40.

I don't rub but I have a sedan.

I'm running 205/40s with a 42 offset on my P5. Dropped on Eibachs. No rubbing whatsoever, even with a full load. From what I hear though you may still run into problems with this setup depending on the brand of tire.

rubbing problems really suck, but if you really plan on keeping them invest in getting them machined to a higher offset.

90% of the time I'm the only one in the car. And right now I plan to get either the g-Force Sport from BF Goodwrench or Yoko AVS ES100's (had two sets of these and love em) in 205/40/17's.

If rubbing does become a problem I'm sure getting a shop to machine them won't be to expensive....

Anyone else running a 42 offset?

I am, on 16x7 Gramlight 57c's. I had to roll the fenders, but other than that, no issues and my car is slammed on JIC coilovers.

as stated, if you had a sedan you would be fine.....but with the P5....its iffy. I know that the YOKO has a raised ridge on it to protect your wheels....THEY WILL RUB with a +42 on a P5....that is a given...but you can't go wrong with those tires as you already know. I have them too and love them. IF you really like that wheel....do yourself a favor....buy them and have them machined to a +45 or so....then put the YOKO's on and start to cruise!

I'm also running a 42 offset. 17" Enkei RSV's w/ 205/40/17 Nitto Neo-Gen tires with Sprint 2" drop springs.

Ikon 1, 17 x7 +42 offset w/ 205/40/17 and I'm dropped with H&R 1.3 inches

And are you on any drop?

Just a question, how did the machining of the wheels go? And what did it cost you to get it done? Got my wheels, and am looking at taking 5mm off to get a 45mm so I can tuck the tires also. Do you have any picts? Thanks.
