Hello, I'm getting a set of 17x8 +35 wheels for my 2005 wrx this week on a killer deal.
I'm lowered 1.5" front and back
I have 17x7 +43 with 225 50 17 tires and have rolled my reAr fenders a good bit to fit them.
I'm wondering if my 225/50 tires would fit on a +35 17x8 without any issues. I'm not against rolling the front some too, but I'm not interested in pulling or hacking. I know the lower offset is going to bring them out a good bit but going from a 7" wide to 8" wide wheel will also "stretch" the tires slightly making it maybe not out so far?
I'm not looking for the hellaflush look, but I wouldn't mind being able to use the tires I just bought a couple months ago.
Any other suggestions on good size tires are welcome too, I'm looking for beefier looking tires not the extreme stretch, I'm not going to try to fit 195 tires on an 8 inch wheels :nerd:
