Fitment question

k, i have a 1990 240sx and i have 17x7.5 +42 offset wheels, yeah i know shitty offset, but i already have them with tires on them 225/45/17 dunlop fm901

i plan to put kyb agx shocks + eibach prokit springs on

and they almost rub already on the stock suspension

what size wheels spacers/adapters should i get so the wheels fit properly?

5mm...15mm...20mm?

it's hard to say, a lot depends on the design/spoke pattern, but you can't be TOO bad... you're running the same size rims/tires that I am. Because of the design of my rims, my +42 offset (normally ghastly sunken-in wheels), is very nearly flush... well, in the front anyways, hahaha, I have spacers in the rear (8mm). That's what I get for buying rims before knowing anything about them.

Hooks us up with some pix, and I guarantee you'll be given more opinions that you know what to do with. Offsets are a HUGE pet-peeve around here.

a 20mm spacer will work wonders. I had the same spec wheels and a 20mm spacer brought it flush in the front. Just remember to get longer wheel studs.
