Yeah, you need spacers for 4th gen rims... also if you think 17's are a bitch.. ask us how some of us have done (or plan to do) 18's....

Wheels that are made for IROC off-sets. 
And their are not to many of those and you have to use spacers. I should know, I am running 17x8.5 wheels & 245/45/ZR17 tires.
