Finally pulled the trigger... TTIIs
Finally pulled the trigger... TTIIs So i finally got tired of the all black murdered out look and purchsed the overly utilized 17x9.5 amd 17x11 TTIIs.
Now the front are gonna fit, but i believe i will run a 3/4" spacer just to kick the tires out and give them a meaner looks.
Bow the backs, i am concered. Some say they have to beat the insider wheel well to get those babies to fit without rubbing.
My question is can i just get a 5/16 or 3/4 spacer and be fine? How big of a spacer can i go before ill need longer studs?
Also can i rock the stock lug nuts as well with these rims?

I'd roll the rear fender lips and center the rear with a adjustable phb; you should be good then. You still might need to do some minor trimming on the bumpstop mounts.
You shouldn't need any spacers in the rear.

the bump stops fell off long ago. but the fenders will be rolled over winter break. defiantly need a phb. but for the time being would a spacer suffice until i get these other mods finished?

i figure this will give me the space i need until i can trim the bump stops and get the phb...
should i go with 1/4" spacers? or maybe 5/16"? or the 1/2" spacers?
it says that to be safe, a lug nut needs 8 full rotations. i basically just need the spacers on the rears just until i get home for thanksgiving break, then the car wont be driven until feburary (which will give me pplenty of time to do the work i need to do)
and i might as well buy spacers anyways because i need some for my weld prostars.

Honestly, i've had 2 sets of TT2s on my own car, and put them on like 5 others. I've never seen a car that requires a spacer unless you're running a tire that's not supposed to be on there. 315/35/17 is what I've always run.

I have a very small spot about the size of a silver dollar that rubs the wheel well, but only on the driver side. I'm using 11" wide TTII's with 315 nitto's no spacers. The stock lug nuts are gonna look like *** on that shiny new rim. Get some chrome Gorilla nuts. I'm lowered 1.25" and had no need to roll the fenders.

Id like to have 17x10.5 all chrome also but it seems american racing dosnt make that wheel especialy a custom one. Seems we have to settle for the 17x11, but still a good size wheel but less tire options
