Calling all xB owners w/25mm rear spacers
(i looked for this everywhere, cant find it)
what size/offset wheels/tires do you have? i am having fittment doubts. i am lowered 2+" and have the rear 25mm spacers. i am looking at some 17x7 wheels with a 42mm offset and will use 205/45/17 tires.
anyone have this and know for a fact that it will clear? i'm only concerned with the rears... i cant find anyone with it. thanks all.

I used to run Goldline 2" drop springs and 205/40/17 stretched on 17x8 +25 (roughly equivalent to 17x7 +13) with no spacers.... I cleared the fenders but I was within 2mm of rubbing....I eventually changed out to 205/45 tires, then I started rubbing. I then added OTG spacer shims, then I had to roll the fenders flat.
So, a 25mm spacer on a 17x7 +42 nets approx. 17x7 +17. Your rim would be 4mm closer in than my original setup, but your tires may be less stretched.
In my rough estimation, I think you'll just barely clear, but there are no guarantees. I'd suggest Falken Xiex 512 because they run narrower than other Falken models or other brands, and this may help with clearance. Just be prepared to roll the fenders a bit if needed. It shouldn't be too bad.
Hope that helps at all....
