hi all

i have been offered some bk racing 17" multi spokes but my car is lowered 40mm on springs and original struts

will this rub?

i have original suspension aswell and wonder if its worth putting that on and if so what is the lowest i can go without rubbing and 17's?

I've got a feeling that BK only go upto 42 - and if so they will probably catch the inner arch lip

i have 16" bk racing 604 alloys and when i have passangers in the back (they always seem to be big people and more than one) they hit the arches quite hard on one side. i dont know what offset my wheels are and dont realy care that much lol
