Also depends on what car you have. Super's require a narrow strut/coil-over, like the MaXX struts from Topline. Standards may require a narrowed beam. Again, this all depends on offset and width.

I am about to put 17x7 and 17x8.5 Boxster turbo twist wheels on my 72 super. I have stock front fenders with MaXX struts. In the rear, I have 1.25" wider fenders and a 1" spacer. I also have to shave a few things down for clearence.

Tell us what width and offset you want, and we can help figure out what you need.
