Wheel/Tire Sizing Suggestion Help

What if I ran 17x8+35 offset on 215/45s? Would I be good on that

You’d be stretching the tires slightly. 215mm is 8.5” wide, but it’s not a huge stretch by any means.

Hey,
I'm thinking of purchasing a set of rim & tire
17x9.5 +25 offset on 215/35's
I do have BC Racing coilovers and rear camber arms, fenders not rolled
Would i be okay running that set up?

Would there be any springs I could get that would be stiff enough instead of getting a whole new wheel setup rn

it's not so simple. Most aftermarket springs are progressive instead of linear (stock). They'll stiffen the harder they're compressed, but are often softer than stock in normal setting

Can someone point me in the directions of what a set of 17x7 +35 offset and 18x7.5 +38 offset would look like? Those are the 2 sizes I’m debating on and would like to see how they’d fit

the 2012 oem SI wheel was 17x7+45. 10mm difference or essentially about 3/8" wider than stock towards the fender side.

the 2015 si wheel stock is 18x7.5+47. 9mm difference. Same situation as above. essentially 3/8" wider than stock towards the fender side.
