ROH Snyper Wheels
I was in the market for some new wheels for my 91 RS. After some time, I finally decided on the ROH Snyper wheels. My only problem is that I want to get 17x9 all the way around but I am not sure if they will clear in the front. I have emailed some on of the dealers but they have not given me a consistent responce. Some say they won't, some say they will, and others are telling me that it just depends on the car. So I was wondering if anyone can help me. Maybe you were in the same situation. Any information will be useful. Thanks guys

Engine: Stock L98 with bolt ons.
Transmission: Stock rebuilt tranny with 2k stall and cooler.
I just went thru this as soon as 2 days ago and I went from 16x8s to 17x9s all the way around with the 0mm offset. I also went with 275/40/17s all around (Kumho 712s) and its been lowered slightly with Eibach Pros. Now with the 16x8s I never experienced any kind of rubbing whatsoever but with the springs the car scraped the airdamn ALOT and the front spoiler was in harms way and I couldnt even get into quick oil change places. I swapped the 17x9s on and I got my ground clearance back and it looks great, I can even get a jack under the front where before I couldnt. It does however rub when you go full lock in either direction especially if youre backing up but its only barely touching the plastic inner fender well and how many times do you turn lock to lock??? Im picky and its very liveable, makes the car look tons better, I can get a jack under the front again where I couldnt with the 16x8s and the drop and the car rolls like a tank, the only other downside is large front tires like to find grooves and steer the car on major highways. Heres what the car looks like now, I need to settle the rear some after that it was well worth the time and $ invested..

That actually isnt my car, its belongs to someone in my 3rd gen club. If I recall, he using the same offset/spacing as mentioned above. At the time of that picture the suspension was bone stock. He is now using Koni-Yellows and Eibach Sport-line springs and doesnt have any rubbing issues even at full lock. Oh, he is also using 275s all the way around. I am also using the eibach sport-line springs and dont have any trouble with rubbing, mine sits a little lower than his, but the stance is perfect IMO..

Hey, jason and nigel it's casey I have been really busy lately but I will be at some club meetings soon.A couple of my freinds have bought thirdgens I will bring them to.In that picture I had eibach prokit springs but it sat high in the front.So I replaced them with jamex springs but it still isn't low enough.Now I am going to get intrax springs then it should be just right.Oh yeah there is a picture of us from a club meeting under my readers rides section.
