Default Offsets for 17's

I have some rims that i havent installed yet. 17 x 7.5. what would be a perfect spacer offset that would line with the wheel fender?

I'm a n00b when it comes to spacers ... would you need longer lugs fro the spcers, or are the OEM ones just fine? Are there any wear-and-tear problem when running a spacer?

u will need longer ones.
h&r recommends 7-8 complete rotations for your nuts to go
into the studs.
u can get longer toyota ones.. or if they are 1" spacers. they will give u new studs.. check out H&R.. and onetongarage.com
van over at one ton has nice quality 10mm spacers i think for the rear. they're called spacer shims and they add 10mm
without losing any stud,, they go behind the hub. i have a set on
my car and i love them! great quality..

whoops. if its for a tC.. shims won't work.
but he does have universal spacers. and they're constructed of super good quality.
as for fitment. u should be able to go like down to a 30 offset.
im thinking a 10mm spacer all around.. maybe even a 15 will bring your rims FLUSH.. u might wanna run a 205/40 to stretch it a lil.
