I had 17x7 +45 and they sit about the same as my 17x8 +40's.
Had 225/45/17 all around, and never had any rubbing issues what so ever. Although i think they could have used a 5-10mm spacer on the rears to bring them more flush. Actually perhaps even a 5mm spacer in the front would have made it look more flush.

define "sit the same."

In terms of how they sit in relation to the fender. I would say both could use a small spacer to bring them out so they sit more flush. But my +40's seem to sit more flush. I attribute that to the slightly lower offset.

Im still thinking noobs would read the stickies more if they were all spread out like other forums...

My rims did NOT stick out an additional 18mm..they would have been way outside the wheel well if they did lol. I was reffering to the distance to make it sit flush with the fender..
Given i never did really compare the 2, when i sold the 7's i basically swapped rims so i didnt have time to compare the 2.
But i am going to stop here. I dont want to ***** up the OP's thread. Continue mazivart.
Edit- rather then posting again, you know it might have actually, cuz the 17x7's sat in the fender id say maybe a little more then the stockers cant really tell you for sure though.

Also keep in mind "flush" is subjective, it depends on the person looking at it.

Too answer the Question.
I have 16x7.5 +45 (Z32 wheels) They fit fine and clear the Z32 front brakes. I think they are kind of weak considering the room under a 4th gen. Other offsets when picked correctly allow the use of much larger wheels and tires (I'm talking wider, not stupid 20+ sizes)

That was read, but it should be PM'd to the 4th gen moderators instead of posting another thread. It was a dumb title to begin with, and misleading to many that don't have a clue or know how to read.
