Those are way too wide for stock fenders.

Not to mention insanely overkill for an NA.

I had Mustang 17x8's on my FC for about 2 years. 225's in front, 245's in back. It was too much traction, and too much stagger for my TII. On Deal's Gap it would understeer horribly. 225's all around on the BBS's is much more balanced. Although, it does like to get loose faster, but easier to manage.

Mustang wheels-



BBS's-

What if I plan to run stretched tires on some 17x9's? I was looking at some MB Battles and they look alright on an FC and are a good, STRONG wheel for the price. ( a bit heavy, yes, but not by much compared to a 3 piece Work Professor SP1 of the same size, which is not much stonger or lighter)
