can someone explain what the word "offset" means...Also, I have 235 45 17's up front and would like a little more grip in the back...Would I have to alter anything to fit 265 40 17's....I"m sure this is a dumb question. Would it be worth going to 275's

275s would be fine even lowered. No problem there if using the stock wheels.

I've got 255/40/zr17's up front and 275/40/r17 drag radials on the back. My car is dropped with the stock wheels. It has never rubbed in the 45,000 miles I've had this setup.

For awhile I had 285's on the back that never rubbed, but that's starting to push it with a 9.5 inch wheel.

They won't rub at all, you have plenty of clearance, I currently run that size in the rear.

I am running 285/40-17s in the back with no rubbing... my car is lowered also. You won't have any problems. These are on the stock wheels BTW.

295's will even go if your not lowered
