5zigen FN-01R-C

Thanks for everyones help, i however found out the i could get the rims in a offset of 48...

Need some help figuring out if i should get em. They are 17x8 5x100 with a 35mm offset for the front with 225/45/17 tires and the rear are 17x9 with a 35mm offset with 245/45/17 tires. There gonna be going on a 1997 subaru outback sport. I know the offset should be at least 48 but i was wondering how much damage this offset could cause and if theres anyway to change it?(camber kit maybe)??? Thankz for the help, Caleb

Those wheels are available with a 48mm offset; Vivid Racing stocks them, along with a few other places. No reason to settle for 35mm.

WTF? Why do you want to stagger wheel sizes? Go with the 17x7(or maybe 8)in et48 & save yourself the trouble.

THE OFFSET ISSUE COULD HAV ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE WHEEL BEARINGS OF YOUR VEHICLE. I WOULD CONSIDER GETTING WHEELS THAT ALLOW FOR SPEC OFFSET

what he said. I've got a 42 offset on my wheels, and some people say that that's pushing it.
