well im planning on buying rims soon 17s. and i was wondering which size is the best. i wanna go wide as possible:), but to clear coilovers and z32 brakes.

i plan to do all these at once, so yea. dont wanna go buying something then find out it dont work.

i plan for 30mm Iron z32 brake setup, wiht some Zeal B2s, and i was wondering which offset to get to clear all of them and have a FLUSH look. i dunno how wide we can go on our cars (ie 17x9.5 etc) i was thinking 17x7.5 and 17x8 but i was wondering can we go anymore? and which offset would be good

Edit: oh yea i plan to get some Advan G2:)

go bigger than 17x7.5, thats kinda small.

I say no less than 17x8 all around. Maybe 17x8 front and 17x9 rear. and keep the offset at low 30s to high 20s...

This is the set up alex (mav1178 if you know him from the lists) is using:

Front
17x8" +20
225/45-17

Rear
17x9" +38
245/45-17

wheels are Black Racing Pro-N1's. I really think these sit perfect on an S13.
