17“ BBS RS replicas

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm planning to buy some Japan Racing wheels BBS RS replicas.
17x8.5 et20 front and back, or maybe 17x10 et 20 for the back if they fit.

My van is 1982 2wd.
The van is not lowered yet, but it will be -50mm

I don't have a problem with sticking out slightly , as I'm planning  to do full bodywork, so I can roll out arches a bit. I know i'll need to extend slider.
Searching around I see that 18x8.5 et20 works quite well, but does seventeens make the diference for contact with upper arm?

So 17x8.5 et20 front and back will they fit?
And maybe 17x10 et20 for the back?

Thanx  and sorry for the long post!
