Flush appearance
whats the correct off set for a flush fender appearance front and rear with these rims sizes..does it differ between rims? if so these are the rims Im considering Smoothies II's,TT II'S and AR Rebels...thanks for you knowledge guys!!!
18x10
17x10
17x9 or 9.5
take in consideration the car will be lowered
and what size tire would look best with the prokit..dont want to fat a tire but also dont want to be on rubber bands...thanks!!!
for front Im thinking 285/45/17 but not really sure on rear...

It's the backspacing that determines how far the wheels will stick out, not the size or width of the rim, but they are related.

so whars the correct backspacing then...and I assume if you have diferent size width tires that would make a differnce also...i.e a 10 inch wide tire would need less back spacing as a 9 inh would need more in order to be flush with fender...

Thanks for you replies Oynx and Xsta....I realize that there is the info in the does it fit but it gives a from an xx to a x will fit, not xx will be flush with fender and xx will stick out or xx will be etc based off the width it just says in general this will fit...but I'm thinking based of what I have now and what I want to achieve is a 17x10 +52mm offset for rear and a 17x10 +38mm offset (or +40mm)???Front Im still a little hazy on...thanks guys!!
