Pulling the trigger on some 17 inch arc 8's. Will a 17x9 et30 fit up front? I know it would be aggressive but I've seen threads about people running 437m fronts which are 19x9 et29. Sorry about all the posts lately

what tire size are you planning to go?

it should fit. Someone here ran 255/40/18 on 18x9. I have 255/40/18 on 18x8.5 35 offset that sits flush,well.. slight poke. Yours might poke a little more due to the slightly lower offset.

you will extend an extra 17mm from the stock wheel towards the fender. hang a string off your fender and measure out from the rim and youll see where 17mm lands compared to that string.

if you are lowered it may be tough to run a 245

et32 may work better if you can find that in the wheel you are looking at.

If I'm lowered will it tuck the front wheel in more so it wont poke? I've heard lowering increases negative camber.
