Well, i came across a killer *** deal (IMO)
The wheels are in town (houston,tx) and i can pick them up whenever...
Enkei Aegis (in chrome
but ill fix that somehow )
(2)17x8F i believe the offset is +38 front
(2)17x9.5R and i think these are +38 also
(2) 255/45R17F
(2) 275/40R17R
the wheels are used and the tires are 50%.
what you guys think they are worth?

i'd expect $1000 and
ROLL YOUR FENDERS NOW
you are gonna get some nice rubbing with those tires in the back
i just noticed 255/40 in the front! umm i don't think those will work. 255/35 maybe if they even make those . go with 225/45 will rub slightly on big bumps.......

yeah, i figured the wheels would be too wide, the rears shouldnt rub.. they never did on my 93 base
the fronts is what im worried about.. ill prolly go out and get some 225/45s like you said
btw.. im paying $750.00 for them. Wheels are in perfect condition.

They look pretty good.. Oh yea, and just wondering.. If someone has all the bolts-ons and goes to the strip a few times a month.. what is a good size of tires for the front? and back? Or does the sizes really matter? I know, the bigger the tire, usually.. the better the traction.

yeah, i was really set on getting 18s.. but i figured this deal was too good to pass up.. so they will do for now...
btw..
IF the offset is 37 on the front can i fit a 235/40R17 up there on a 17x8?
