You will soon learn :nod:, it depends on your level of tune, but i think for most of us it wont make much of a difference where your intercooler comes from.

Yeh, knew they were 9j's by the deep spoke design, if you ever have the wheels off check for the offset, i'd be interested to know :thumbs:

I thought S15s cant fit concave cr kais. Oh how wrong was I. 17x9 +17 in the front just look freaking hot. I can see that you lip your front guards as well? Looks awesome!

if i bought cr kai's 17 by 9j with an offset of either +28 or +38 would they fit without loads of camber?

You would need some camber on the front to keep it under the arch, rear should be ok.
I think it will hit the suspension leg and stick out.

my 8.5J offset +30 almost thouch the suspension leg and sticks out a couple of mm.

He doesnt have the same wheels, you dont get a 8.5j in the 17's.

If you go for: -

Front -
8j ET30 (same as i have) that will clearer any low coilovers, should you get them in the future, and be just in the edge for keeping under the arch.

Rear -
9j ET38+ (i'd go nearer 40), they should be good.

think perfectrun had +32 and +38 for front 8j and +38 or +44 for 9j for the rear maybe the +44 be better?
