I'm looking into purchasing a set of 17" Buddy Club SF wheels to put on my 2011. The Buddy Club's are 17x7.0 5x100 +42 offset, question is will I need spacers? Will fenders need to be rolled? I'm currently on Tein H-tech lowering springs on the stock 15"s with no issues. Could you guys possibly recommend a tire size as well? Thanks in advance.
Short answer, no. you probably do not need spacers below, is your differential from the OEMs. and this is my differential. you will probably have a little more flush look considering your offset. when considering wheels. i would go 225/45/17 to protect the rims a bit JUST in case you decide to hit the curb by accident. Otherwise can go for a more curved and wrapped look with 215/35s or something.
They offer these particular buddy clubs in either a +42 or a +48, would the 42 be preferable or the 48?
