So I was reading a post the other day about a triple black car, someone stated "put some black wheels on it" So I thought how would my car look with black wheels, so heres my question to keep it tech. Do any of you guys run 17x9 on a fox or do you need 17x8 for clearance so it doesnt rub? Also heres the link to eBay on the wheels.

Also they would be going on this.

No rubbing issues w/ 17 x 9 here, but each rim/wheel is different.

I have 17x9 up front with 255/40R17s and 18x9.5 in back with 285/35R18s and it is pretty low. I have my suspension pretty stiff, inner fender lips rolled and some rack limiters in.

Hellz yea, I got a ton of responses, got everything I needed from you fellaz, All I need to do now is turn my black on black stang into Darth Vader. Can't beat the deal they offer too $320 for 4 rims But I am also local so I can pick them up.

I had 17x9.5 wheels on my hatchback, 275's in the back no problems, except for the tailpipes and I didn't have any quad shocks.
