my pink wheels are 17x7 +43 with 205/40R17 BFG's
a couple months ago I added 1/2 in (13mm) hub spacers to even it out with the front..... and the more and more I looked at it, I hated my wheel being sucked in so damn far....
so instead of getting new wheels, I bought 1in (25mm) wheel adapters
so if we add this up
+43-13-25=+5 offset for the rear
+43-25=+18 for the front

they are still in the wheel well, but barely, I lightly buzzed one rear tire when I hit a bump on a hard turn..... but a small fender roll should solve that

so I have widened the rear track by 3 inches and the front by 2in

I will get some pix up here soon, and she drives awesome around turns now

Zero rubbing with the new wheels.... old ones were +43... these are +45.... and it makes all the difference

I love it
