I think with that offset it will be ok with guard rolling. 8in with +35 offset is about the same as 7in with +22 offset, which is doable, but only with guard rolling. But that's just the outside clearance. Not sure about whether there would be enough room on the inside, given that it's 8in wide. I think it would be ok though.

So I think the offset is probably ok, I'm just not sure about the rolling diameter...I think a 205/40-17 is probably quite a bit bigger in diameter than stock and that's probably the thing that will cause issues if anything.

What's the difference in outside diameter between a 205/40-17 and a 185/60-14?
