Man, you could get away with 17x8 et40 as well. That's awesome! Would you say the template was accurate?
The template was definitely spot on. When I had the caliper in hand I mocked up the template on the caliper to see if the dimensions lined up and it did. As well as the space I have between the spokes is correct as the template suggested too.
I found it funny when I first opened the box they ship a template with it so that you know if you're screwed after you've already bought the kit! But you can also print it out and download it from their website too
But yeah, atleast with the Pro Race 1.2s, there are a few different specs you could go with instead of needing an outrageous wide/low offset wheel because of the 1.2 spoke/deep hub design
