If you're running flares with standard offset 9 x 16s with 245 rubber. What issues did you encounter? Need spacers? Too much outboard offset? Your info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ok guys, thanks for the info. The reason for the question is that I'm having a set of 17" diameter Fuchs centered wheels made for the car. I was going to add a little backspacing if nessecary. This way I can shim the wheel to exactly where I want it. Mike , I see your running 1/4" spacers already with the stock offset. I think I'll add 1/2" backspace for good measure.
Assuming you guys are running 8's on the front. Are any of you running shims on the front to space them out? Or is the stock 8" Fuch offset pretty good? I'm leaning toward stock to keep the scrub radius to a minimum. Dave |
