What wheels/rims do you have??

Here's a video of the Momo's I installed with 18" rear and 17" front w/ Michelin Pilots. The ride is unbelievable. The color is Aranthricite and I have a matching colored side stripe for the car thanks to Patrick C that I need to install.

No way, I was considering these exact wheels! They do look good.

In your description you have the front width at 245. Is that right?

So I take it the front 17s are 8" wide, offset 35mm as well?

They are 17x7 in the front with a 42mm offset and have no issues with rubbing at all. They just miss the sway bar perfectly. The stock offset is 40mm so an 8" wheel with 35mm will probably rub if making a sharp turn and will need a spacer. The rear is a 42mm offset at 18x8 and will require hub centric spacers from Toby at DMCNW for $200. This is mandatory. The tires are 205/40R17 and 245/40R18

So to follow up, I researched Patrick C's wheel offset at 40mm front and 35mm rear offset. Compared to mine at 42mm offset both front and back, I don't think 8" @ 35mm in the front is going to have enough clearance. You will definitely need the rear spacers between 35-42mm or the wheels will be too far inside the wheel well.

More info: If the wheels that you are after have a 35 mm offset, then the adapters will correct that to the difference between the two numbers: 35 – 25 = 10 mm. The stock wheel has a 19 mm offset, and is installed in conjunction with a 3 mm thick spacer. For my aftermarket wheels at 42mm, you will end up with the wheels positioned a tiny bit further out than stock (by 9 mm) which is less than ½ inch. This is fine.

Front: front wheel should be okay, although you will still have to watch for rubbing of the inside lip on the sway bar. 7" is a better fit than the stock wheels that are 7 ½ inches wide, but still a different fit than stock.

The wheels that I am looking at, Ruff R959 are 18x8.5" with a 17mm offset for the rear, which won't require spacers. Even though I already bought them from Toby.

I am worried about the front, 17x8 and 35mm offset. I don't mind if there is some rubbing on the bar when turned all the way, as long as there is no other interference.

Was wondering if other know any more info

Here is a wheel and tire fitment calculator online

According the calculator the front wheels I am looking at will be 1" wider on each side. Wondering if it will interfere with fender or anything major?

You are definitely going to stick out at least
.9" in the front and I feel pretty confident you will rub the lip of the sway bar when making tight turns in a parking lot just a bit. For the front fender, you will probably just rub the lip of the fender when loading the front end over a bump by a smidge. It's really tough to say until you get them on because you're right on the threshold of your limit. Tough call. I wish I could be more help. I'd give Toby a call to discuss it with him, but I think you're going to get the same exact response. Good luck Billy! Can't wait to see a photo of your new shoes!
