It's a different look, but I got Kazera KZ-As in a 9.5" width. Mine are 18", but I see that they make 17s. The offset on mine is perfect - no Joe Dirt here (at least not on the outside...lol). Just thought it might be a possible choice for you if you're looking for a 9.5" wide wheel.

Truthfully, not as bad as I thought it would be.

I don't think it looks horrible, it would look better if the car was dropped. By my fancy wheel/tire calculator, with that tire, it shoud stick out 1.9" farther than the stock 17" bullitts.

I would thinka 10 wide rim with an offset~35mm would be perfect.

Oh yeah, forgot, how does the other side look? Is your axle perfectly centered? That could make one side worse than it should be.

I did mention that I do not like the look either. They are the 10.5's. I will repost pics when I have the Raceline's mounted.

if you are interested in selling the 10.5 wheels and tires together, how much would you want for them? I kinda like the look and wouldn't mind having a set for the right price. Pm me with an answer or if you want to, post on this thread so others can know too. Thanks.
