8 x 17s on a 200q ... final report
For all those who have been following this saga, my 8x17 wheels are finally
on the car and -- drum roll, please -- they fit perfectly, with no bodywork
whatsoever either being necessary or performed. :^)
The front offset is 33mm and the rear is 45mm, and I'm using 215/45-17 BFGs
... it looks like there might just be enough room for a 235/45-17 (although
the rear fender lips will probably have to be rolled slightly to clear) and
I plan to mount the worn-out tire an M3-owning friend gave me on a spare to
verify this in the near future. Stay tuned...
