Will 17x8s Fit the ST165??

Postby hoolio » Fri Oct 20, 2006 7:11 pm

As above will 17 x 8s alloys fit the ST165 or are they too wide to be practical?? ie during full lock or turning will these rub on the guards??

I've got 16x7's with a 38P offset on my 165 and they fit perfectly all round, the front will rub the outter edge of the guards if you hit a large bump at high speed around a corner. I wouldn't want to go any wider as these JUST fit as it is.
