17x9 +35 Work VSXX

I'm looking into some 17x9 +35 Work VSXX, seller says they will clear without spacers, just want to be 100 percent sure. I'll be looking into a 265/40/17 tire

Did a search for you but could not find any threads for this wheel

Just so you know, running a 265/40 will require a super flat rear fender roll at the very least. Possible bumper bolt interference but due to the 9" wheel you maybe OK

I run a similar set-up (265/40/17 on 17x9.5 +30)

Yea I've searched and searched and I haven't found a for sure answer, I've been looking for a few years now actually, the BBS LM and Work VSXX are my favorite wheels, it's just to damn hard to find a set that will fit without spacers, and also that arent gonna cost me my ********* lol. I'd really prefer 18x9.5 but just can't find anything.
Just for reference my fenders are already rolled, and bumper bolt is already relocated.

265 is a bit wide. Any reasons not to use a 255? Just curious. Also in for fitment info. I saw a set for sale and wondered the same thing.

Honestly after looking at the options for 265/40/17s I may go 255 instead.
I may end up just getting some ce28 reps that are 18x9.5, they are the perfect offset and I can't really pass up on the price

yeah.. not much avail in a 265. I run a 9.5" wheel and 265 would be perfect, but I'm stuck with 255 (which is okay). There is just a bit of stretch that I'm not really a fan of. In retrospect, I wish i had bought a 9" wheel.

The reps should save you a ton of money, though!

Yes they are saving a lot of money, and the more I think about it, in the last 4 months I've had to replace 2 of my steelies and hubcaps on my beater Galant, I couldn't imagine ruining a 2k set of wheels to the crap roads around here.
