I was looking at the same size wheels. Would ET32 be too low? Anyone know if this combo rubs with 205/40/17 size tires and a mild drop (TRD)?

Thanks, joey. That was fast! So I shouldn't have to worry about rubbing with this setup? I just saw that these wheels I'm looking at come in 32 offset. I can always get spacers later for the rear. I'm just paranoid about rubbing. Thanks for the help.

i would get 7.5" wide.. +32 all around..
use a 5mm wheel spacer in the rear.. they cost 5-20 bucks at most wheel places for a pair..

I'm running 17x7 +25 offset & 205/40-17 on 2" Goldline drop... no rubbing what-so-ever... even with "bigger" rear passengers causing the rear to sag.

Most of our 17 X 7.5 after market wheels are either 35 or 38mm offsets, however, it does and will vary slightly with different wheel designs!
