17x10 on third gen?
Has anyone see or achieved running a 17x10 on a third gen? Found a decently nice set of american racing wheels that are hard to find and really want to get them but 10 wides are a little big. Has anyone pulled this off or think I would be able to make it work?

I run 19x10 on the rear of my 92 with 3" wheel spacecrs. I have 18x8.5 on the front with 2" spacers. If the offset is right or you can use the proper size spacer it should work.

17' x 10" fits on the rear, no problem.
In the front, it is going to either hit the tie rod or stick out a tad. Optimal size is 9.5" wide for a 17. You move up to 18 and things change - it will clear the tie rods and tuck in with the right offset.
