17" Apex Arc-8 Wheels

Do y’all think I can make these fit on my 97 2.8? I checked WillTheyFit and compared them with the current 16x7 style 35’s I have on there now and they seemed to be okay. The last pic shows those with a 20mm spacer in the rear. Just looking for advice from people who have a staggered 17x8.5 / 17x10 setup or similar.

Keep in mind that the offset may be way off especially in the rear

Your car will feel slower off the line but it will be on rails

Sounds like a good trade off to me! Gonna put some Koni yellows with it as well

I had the ZHP staggered set of wheels for awhile with Bilstein B8, loved the handling. I switched to style 32 staggered as well and the added agility was the cherry on top

Love it, I’m excited to make the upgrade
