I have 17x8 225/45 in front and 17x8 245/45 in the rear....same offset as you. It's tight but works.

EDIT: It's now lowered (not in sig) with Intrax all around, all poly, and KYB shocks... still not rubbing

Could you please post a pic of your tires for me?

I love your sig I'm working on one but can't get the file size down without it looking crappy

Could you also post a pic of your setup please? Oh, and how does it ride with the setup you have? The springs.

Yes, fph6666 mine are front. The rear has 18x9's 35mm offset with 275/40's but they took a bit more work as I had to go coil over and even with coil over I can only just slip a couple pieces of paper thru. I think in the rear of mine I am going to add 1/8 inch wheel spacers just in case.
