Default Would this setup fit?

Would the Motegi Trak_Lite 2 in 17x8 with a +42 offset fit an xB with 215/40 17s? Would it be a tight fit, require rolling or modding the fenders, or fit with no problems (even with full lock)? Thanks for the help.

Hahajoey, are you talking about the front or rear wheels? If the rear, I could just use the onetongarage shims, correct?

thats correct.
with those wheels..
i suggest a 205/40 or 45..
and then throw the oneton garage spacer shims(very well worth it).
it'll be pretty "decent" i still think u can rock a 2mm spacer front and rears after the shims.

I have Trak Lites on my xA. You will certainly need the rear spacer. I don't think putting the 215.40.17 tires on that wheel. It's too wide for the rim, methinks.

Cool.

You guys think there will be any problems with the front wheels? Any rubbing issues with turning?

I haven't had a problem with mine, but that's on the 7-inch wide Trak Lites, not the 8-inch wide Trak Lite 2. You may want to get a ship spacer for the front just to be on the safe side. 4mm should do it, because that will bring the offset back to the stock 38mm.
