wheels fit my third gen?
how would some 17x9.5 wheels with 4.5 inch backspacing, -18 mm offset and 245/40R17s fit on my third gen?
i did a search and didnt find anything for 9.5 wide and 4.5 back spacing

yah i seen that thread, those look like they stick you pretty far, the ones im looking at will stick out another half inch, not much i guess.
i tried some 15x10 with 295/50s on my car and they had major rubbing issues outer part of the wheel wells came down on the tires the littlest bumps. i think those wheels have 4 inch back spacing. sure looked cool
