17x8s?

Post by Imprezive »

Anyone running 17x8 rims? I've got a set of TSW trackstars that are 17x8 with a 50mm offset thats I'd like to put on my car but i don't know if its worth the time and I can't test fit them because my car is at a shop waiting for me to rebuild the engine...

I've got 17x7s on my '93 and I had a rubbing problem after I lowered it. So, I had to get a grinder and grind off the inner lip that folds inward toward the tire. I then sealed it with some RTV.
