For the fronts:
If you want the wheels to sit more flush you can even go down to ET30 if you are running 8" with 225/45. So 8" ET35 is safe. My 8,5" ET34 pokes 6mm more than that setup. I have no issues.




Please don't comment the look of the following wheels They are only my storage wheels. Got them for free and are ugly as...

7,5x17 on all 4. Fronts are ET40 and rears are ET20. 205/50-17 Toyo-something tires.




8" ET35 poke 11mm more than this.

Even had 9x19" ET44 as square setup once. A little rub in the front. But that would have been fixed with 225/35.




Regarding the rears you can easily put on 15mm spacers for the 8" ET35.
