Alright will it fit 17x9 in the rear and probably 17x7.5 in the front without any rubbing and without body work on the fenders. What are some decent cheaper wheels?

why would you go 17x7.5F 17x9R?

why not 17x8F 17x9R?

why would you NOT want to roll or pull your fender slightly? it is an easy and very cheap mod to do

sell your car

Alright thank you, you guys really like flaming anyone that comes around asking about wheels. I was thinking FN01R-C 17x9 20 offset in rear and and 17x8 35 in the front. Will I need roll the fenders at all, as of now its a stock suspension.

if u want 17x9 rears u either gotta do a 5 lug conversion or find a dealer that can get u the 4 lug version. the 17x8 +35 fronts will not work without a spacer(the inside lip will grind on the suspension when you turn). if ur really concerned about cheaping out on the wheels then just get tenzos with cheap kumho(or watever) tires. a stock daily driven car DOES NOT NEED $150+ DOLLAR TIRES. cheap tires work just fine.
