17x9 or 17x8

[snoboardcore]

Hey guys do i wanna get the cobra replicas for the front 17x9 or 17x8? Will either of the two rub in the front? I already have some 17x9's for the rear and i can get the 17x8's used for 150 for the pair.

If you have 94-95 spindles I say 17X9.

17x8 with out any mods. u could do the 17x9 with a steering lock tho.

I have 17x8's with 255/40x17's on front and 9's in back. They fit nicer than the ones I have seen with 9's in the front. Most stick out and look kinda goofy in my opinion. Never had any rubbing what so ever. Car has Eibach pro-kit springs.

My 17x9s rub on my GT kit.

Yeah 17x9's rub and at the inside back just a tad at stock ride hieght... but I plan on getting a limiter. Nothing like 17 x 9- stance is awesome. The cheap and easy way is 17x8 and they look good too.

ill prob go with the 17x8's then and plus i can get them for 150

You can do 17x9s if you have 5.98" Backspace for the front and 6.42" Backspace for the rear along with the SN95 Conversion and it probably wouldnt hurt if you used rack limiters up front too.
