Default Rpf1 wheel + spacer q, and dr q

Im not good with wheel offset and tire sizes. I bought Enkei RPF1 wheels and the offset is 35mm 17x8. So if i add spacers does that widen the offset? 35mm +10mm spacer= 45offset??? idk but i need drag radials to fit too. 235-40-17....i think thats what tirerack said. Little embarrassing but i really dont know much about wheels and tires. lowerd on tien stech

no if you add a 10 mm spacer it will push it out to a 25mm offset meaning it will be more flush with fender.

you will more than likely have some rubbing with the 10mm spacer.

you will rub with that size tire and drag radials because don't radials have a larger sidewall? if not, then you should be fine. Post up photos when you have them on!

you will rub. Any decent radial will have a good size sidewall. I had 245/45 on +30 offset of H-techs and rubbed like ____. Like, not driveable rub.

well if you are going to run these for just racing, you wont benefit from spacing them anyways.
