Ok so im looking to buy some Lenso d1r's off ebay - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LENSO-D1R-Drift-Wheels-17-x-8-33-17-x-9-35-NISSAN-/190509601578?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2c5b41d32a#ht_1501wt_1002 
 
Question ive got is has anyone with coilovers successfully fitted these? The wheel calculator reckons 17x9 +35 is perfect but does not account for different suspension. Im pretty against fitting spacers and have already rolled the inner lip front and back.

I dont have those wheels but I do know that the rears will be fine.
 
For some reason my Meisters which had the same width and a +32 offset would not clear the coilovers (Tien Super Street)
 
Hopefully you can find someone that has them and can test fit them.

Im sure i saw a car on here ages ago running them i just cant remember what specs he had. It doesnt sound too promising that the +32's didnt clear your Super Streets cause im running them too. They do make a 17 x 9 +30 tho...

Hell yeah they look awesome. Id probably have gone something like work meister's but for the price and weight these are a brilliant wheel. 
Does that other thread mention what sizes etc they are running or if they were running coilovers as well?

I'm running the same offset on the front of mine with my gramlights. You would NOT get any closer than what these run with my JIC coilovers. The inside of the front right wheel has the slightest scuff ring around it from where the tyre has distorted under weight and has rubbed on the collar. Hasn't been enough to take any of the rubber off the upraised words though. But that's very fine with +33. Rears you will be fine.

So the fronts will almost definately hit on shocks and springs if there just fouling on coilovers at +33?

Shocks on springs actually have more clearange than coilovers because where the wheel sits, its below the perch, so no spring in the way. coilovers the spring comes down past where the perch is on standard strut/spring combo so will foul in more cases than standard (hopefully that made sense).
 
As for the some wheels of that size fitting and others fouling, NOT ALL WHEELS ARE THE SAME. some 8" wheels with the lip will measure in excess of 8". others a little less. it all depends on the wheel.

Isn't the wheel width the inside dimmension between the flanges?  The outside width can vary for same wheel width due to different flange width/design, but can not be less than the wheel width (plus a bit to allow for minimum flange width)?

Thats pretty much what he is saying.
