Just looking for info on what the min/max offset you can run for a GSR using these size wheels. Going on a stock body GSR. 17 x 7.5 +44 seems pretty common, same with +40. I'm assuming these are fine, but would just like confirmation before spending the cash. Will be running 215 40 (or possibly 45) tyres.

I had 18x7.5 +42, rear guards were rolled but otherwise stock, it is pretty low. There was only a small gap between the trailing arm and tyre.
I have now a 17x7 +42 and there is heaps of space. 17x7.5 and anywhere between +38 - +42 should be safe for you, front should be fine, worst you'd have to do in the rear is roll the inner lip and maybe bend in the bumper tabs if it's lowered

I'm with Ian there - I'm running EVO6 rims on my CC Coupe (17 x 7.5 +38) with a 215/45 tyre and I had to remove the bumper tab on the rear.
I'm also getting a bit of scrub on the top of the inner guard on the fronts.

I have Evo 5 rims on my Evo....had to slightly roll my rear guards and relocate the bumper tab..only to suit my preferred ride height which isnt stupid low.
If you havent lowered the car at all the Evo 5 wheels are a perfect fit in all aspects.

I have a set of 17x7.5 +40 and I want to run 215/45 will I be okay with just a fender roll? Any issues with trailing arm?

You will need to roll/lip your rear guards.
I have the same size / offset and am fine on the trailing arm.
Also get some front scrub on full lock only when in reverse.

Thanks that helps a lot. I'm looking to go pretty low, any issues with that? Do you have any pics of your setup?
