but firstly, you should list the offset on the wheels to help with fitment questions.
but i already know what wheels you are talking about. they are the sportmax 006's with the +35 offset.
to answer your question, yes the will fit with no modification required.

I hope you don't mind me asking this in your thread, cuz there isn't a point in making another one... but I also have sportmax 962's, 17x7 up front, and 17x9 in the back, +38 Front +35 Rear... what size tires should i get, and would i need any extra modifications (spacers)?
I'm also pretty low

to shaban: no do not run a 215 in the rear. the reason i say that is its going to look RETARDED running a stretched *** tire in the rear and a square tire in the front. I would run a 245/40 in the rear(will have very very little stretch) and a 205/45-50 up front. that will make the tires look similar on the rims. also, i would suggest running a 25mm adapter style spacer for the front to make the wheels look flush with each other.
neither of you will have any problems with clearance no matter how low you go. i have a friend running 17x9 +35 with coils slammed with no issues.

don't take the above tire size reccomendation seriously. you will want to run 205 and 235 at the minimum. you will probably need spacers for the front wheels if you have aftermarket suspension

Not only is a 215 in the rear going to look retarded, but its dangerous. That is too wide of a rim to put a 215 on.
Not trying to attack you nismo knight but seriously. If it looks uneven then run a 195 and a 225 in the rear then. Theres no need for big fairy tires that not only looks like ****, but its not good for anything but drag racing. maybe a little grip.
