Who's running 215x40 tires on 17x7.5 +45 offset rims?

Anyone have pictures of this set up on their MSP? Curious to see how far out the wheels will be.

(purchasing first set of aftermarket wheels, a little hesitant)

 

[Striker187]

the tires aren't really gonna dictate how far the wheels stick out so here's a couple of my car. same setup u want, except with 215/45 tires.

Thanks Striker - It doesn't look like you have a drop. Do you rub at all?

 

[Striker187]

nope no drop. though i think the rear sits pretty low....lower than any other msp i've seen. i have maybe a 1/2" gap before the tire starts to tuck. no rubbing though. and i've had 4 other people in my car too.

i'm getting lowering springs later this year hopefully....we'll see if i rub any with those.

I thought you couldn't fit 18x8's on a MSP?

 

[Striker187]

i don't think they're 18x8.....they don't come in that size. more than likely, they're 18x7.5.

 

[ZMN BY U]

yeh your right im sorry 18x7.5 tires are 225/40/18 i got them from ezwheels.com

 

[nk2a]

I was wondering why you chimed in ZMN BY U. LOL. Makes more sense now.
Looks good. Did you have to roll your fenders?

 

[ZMN BY U]

no fender problems fits perfect i have tein springs. the back never did drop like i wanted it too. but ohwell take care guys

what offset are those 18 x 7.5 wheels? I think it looks good...

 

[Striker187]

most likely +48
