![]() Hi. I would like to have 17x8 wheels on my 945.The ET is 35 and i plan to use 25mm spacers.The tires I want to use are 225/45. Calculations says that these rimms will go from outer side 30mm more.I have lowering springs -40mm.Does anybody have done it before? Is it work?

![]() Ive got 17x8, I believe with a 40mm offset and with 25mm spacers in the front, 32mm rear. 215/45 tires. Like 2.5 coils cut all around. Rubs a bit at full lock only, no other problems.

![]() did you do any modifications to the front lower spring seat to keep them seated? how loose are your springs fully decompressed like while jacked up?
