I'm thinking about getting some 17x8 Enkei RPF1's for track wheels. I was checking out sizing on tire rack's website, and it shows a +45 offset with a 215/45/17 tire for my car. Thats not what I had in mind. I was thinking of running a lower offset and definitely a wider tire. IIRC, I talked to a guy on here who had 17x8 +35 RPF1's on his car. So I know anywhere from a +35 to +45 offset will work, but I guess I'd like to know what offset in that range is ideal. Keep in mind, I'm FWD and decreasing the offset increases the scrub radius which will increase torque steer. Its a necessary evil if I want to run wider rubber, but I want to find the best compromise between the two.
