So, I just got my car repainted and now I want to get some black wheels. I really like the SVE 10th anniversary gloss black wheels and was looking at the staggered 17 X 9/10. Can I run the Nitto NT555 G2 315/35 17 on the rear with no issues on stock IRS and suspension?

I think the 17" rims are 10.5" wide. That being said they'll be fine. You'll probably either need to shave the IRS bolt or get a low profile version. Might need to roll the fenders too. You won't know until its mounted.

Lots of discussions on it.

The LMR website says they are 10" and the offset and backspacing is different than the other discussions I could find.
Size: 17x10
Backspacing: 6.29"
Offset: +20mm
Lug Pattern: 5x4.5
Weight: 21.98lbs

I agree pretty sure they are 10.5" but I am running 315 Mickey Thompsons which use to be wider than the Nittos and had to shave my bolt to a height of 1/4".

Ok, got the wheels, got the IRS bolts thought it was all good but the center caps won't go on. The hub/shaft is about 1/4 inch too long to allow them to snap on. If I go with a 8mm (5/16ths) backspacer will the original lug bolts be long enough? If not, what length do I need?
