Quick question, Is there a general rule for coilover clearance with wide wheels, like a minimum offset to clear coilovers or is it all depending on what coils/wheels you're running? I'd like to know if 17x10 +20 (XXR 526) would clear Megan Tracks, and if not, how much spacing would I need? I asked this in the small questions thread but no answer.

This diagram is SPOT ON for my Megan track coilovers.
Online Wheel & Tyre Fitment calculator. Offset and Tyre Stretch

I have two cars with them, bought about two years apart, a few small differences, but fitment is the same on both sets of fronts. If I put a wheel weight on the inner lip of my 9.5 +12, it will hit the spring. Good luck.

Appreciate it man. So what I what I gathered from that is I'd need 10-15mm spacers to clear the coil. Should be interesting... Thanks again man.

i'm highly convinced that 45 series sidewalls only work on 16s and 15s........ which put them in the gay category ..

(225/45 on 17x9.5, 235/45 on 17x10)

yeah, pretty much. That rear tire is over an inch taller than a stock tire. Should have gone with 40 series.
