Default s13 rear wheel offset

I'm looking at a set of 5Zigen FNOR1-c's for my 91 s13. They are staggered fitment, and the rears are 17x9 +20. That doesn't seem like enough offset to me for a 9" wide rim...I'd rather see a 30 or 35. The distributor tells me that they will be perfect on the rear, but what else would I expect.

Anyone have any actual experience with this much wheel sticking out?

Thanks,

Toby

1. Roll fenders
2. Slap them on
3. Bling bling

No such thing as too little offset! haha

first off 17 is small ish....but if your keeping them 17x9 20offset fits fine in the front of the 240 without rubbing coilovers maybe pull the fenders slightly for the rear 17x10 12 offset is where its at. Dont ask questions, just do it

yeah, but he was running 255's and what looked like to be hardly no camber... if you put a 215 or 225 on there, it would be a nice stretch, and lowering the car would add camber anyways, soooo slight roll... and you would be golden. Check zilvia for pics on them in the group buy section.
