This is 18x10 offset 24 on hks hipermax II coilovers, rolled fenders with brembo bbk. (plenty of gap between calipers and wheel) No rubbing under normal and drifting conditions. I lower more when i go drifting, pic is taken while normal driving.

I've been searching through this thread and couldn't find any solid information on 17" rims. I have a chance to buy a set of used Work rims. They are 17x8 and 17x9, both with +35 offsets. How will these fit (if they even do). Will they be tucked in or flush and will there be a need for fender mods with a 1" drop on the SC?
Also, will these specs clear a TT brake upgrade or does it depend solely on the design of the spokes? Thanks for any information.

those wheels will fit but will be tucked...brake caliper clearance has more to do with face/spoke type than offset or width and that varies between each model wheel. (though, that setup sounds conservative enough that my guess is you won't have any caliper clearance issues)
