What size spacer would you need to run to make it work? Spacers as they get thicker are wisely frowned upon, but so are 2" drop spindles, spacers are cheaper/easier if your studs are long enough.
Even a 6mm spacer to me is acceptable in most cases if no other options are possible.
I tried 6mm spacers with no luck and I'm opposed to going beyond that. Plus even with longer studs, adding a larger spacer makes the wheels stick out too far for aesthetic preferences.
While I resisted the idea, I'm shopping for a 17x8 wheel now...if anyone relatively local to CT thinks they can make these work, I'll give you a great deal on them.
2x 15x8 +10 (4.9" backspace) with 235/60/15 BFG T/A
2x 15x8 +0 (4.5" backspace) with 255/60/15 BFG T/A
The tires literally have a few hundred feet of driving on them. The fronts have some scratches on the inside lip but it's 100% not visible while on the car and not structural.
