Should be able to fit it as is, you can search for the wide body/rocket bunny wheel fitment thread for more specific info on other people's setups.

I dont buy tires yet. I have coilovers. But the main problem is that wheels are 5x120 but we need 5x100. Service said that it wont fit(
Im noobie at tuning, so cant say some things(

Hey everyone, question... I've been reading forums day in and out for the past few days but am still a bit unclear on whether my new wheels will fit my brz. I drive a 2013 subaru brz, its stock except for the exhaust. My question is, will an 18x9.5 with an +25mm offset wheel fit? I'm hoping to go with 225/?/18 (not sure what tire height would be best, taking any and all suggestions). If they do fit, will there be any rubbing, bumping, or other mishaps that will happen if I put these on, and will I need spacers since the original offset is +48?
Thanks!

In November I purchased a 2017 Subaru BRZ. I put a set of Nokian winter tires on just in time to have lots of fun with my BRZ in the snow here in Vancouver BC Canada. The winters went onto stock wheels but I want to have separate wheels and tires for the summer. I haven't purchased new tires or wheels yet because I need to know the following:

With the 2017 BRZ stock suspension, and stock ride height, what are the MAX width wheel (?and offset range?) and tire combination(?245, 255, 265,?) would fit on the Front and Back using 17inch DIA wheels?


Thank you very much for your help!!!

18x9.5 with an +25mm will poke in the front. Only thing around this is coilovers with alot of camber, and even then this is not ideal.

225 tires on a 9.5" wheels is also not the best idea, and in some countries even illegal, due to massive strech. 225 tires are 22.5cm wide, a 9.5" wheel is 24.1cm wide. Not only does it look bad (well, at least in my view), it also drives bad.

Well, there is a "reasonable" answer to this, and a "MAX" answer to this.

The reasonable would be 8.5" +45 to +35 offset, maybe 9" if you dont mind the front poking out a bit.

The max would be 9.5" +35, however this will poke in front and rear on stock suspension, but is possible to drive (however, dont ask me if its legal in your country.

Tirewise, on 8.5" or 9" 245 or 255 tires, on 9.5" 245 or 255 front, 265 rear

They will be poking out quite a bit on stock suspension. If you are going for a stancy pants 4++ camber slammed n stretched tire setup, then this would work. Otherwise +35 to +40 is a better fit for a 9.5. If you are on stock suspension, I'd tell you to go 8-9" width.

Also learn how offset works... adding a spacer subtracts the offset.

Thank you!!!

A clarifying questions...

1. If I use 8.5 Fronts at the +45 to +35 offset suggested would it poke past flush?

2. If 9.5's fit on the rear what disadvantages would there be as you describe this as being the Max but not Reasonable on stock suspension? Would switching to coil overs alleviate those concerns?

3. Since I would like to continue to use 17's instead of 18's my choices for tires are limited if I go with 265's for the 9.5" R-tires. What would the disadvantages of using 255's on the rears instead of 265's on 9.5" wheels?

Thanks greatly for your help!

mhhh... alot of questions I cant fully answer in a short post, as it really depends on what you want to achive and what your goals are. I try to answer them as good as possible from your informations, but if you let me know what your goal is, I might be able to give you a better recommondation

1. +45 should be about flush, +35 will poke about 1cm in the front if not lowered, depending on the tires you're using. If you go for 245 in the front, again depending on the manufacturer of the tires, it might poke a bit with +45 aswell. Be carefull here, 8.5" with +45 and 245 is very very thight to the inner struits, so it may rub if you take a shitty tire that is very wide (not all 245 tires are exactly 24.5cm wide, there are differences between the manufacturers and types of tires)

For reference, this is a 245tires on 8.75" wheels with +35 all around, on stock suspenson. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...1&postcount=75
You can clearly see the tires are a bit outside the fenders


2. 9.5" do even fit in the front, so my reference was for an 9.5" all around. However they do poke out quiet a bit in the front.
If you go for a staggered setup (8.5 fron 9.5rear) the car normally tends to be less agile, and rather understeers than oversteers. Also, you cannot swap the tires front/rear. Also, most wheels have a way more concave design in 9.5" than 8.5", so you'll end up with differently looking wheels. In my opinion this looks cool on a massivle wider rear car like a porsche or a Lamborghini, but not on a GT86, but this is up to personal taste.
For reference, a 8.5/9.5 staggered setup here

About springs/coilovers, see below, I'll make a special note on it at point 4.

3. Really, none. Some less grip, but take it from a guy that runs the alps regularly very spirited (here is a link to a video if you're interessted http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=40789 ) anything above 245 is not needed unless you have a massive engine boost on the car. Especially if you run stock suspension

4. Suspension. If you lower the car, regardless if with springs or coilovers, the wheels will come a bit more to the "inside" of the car, due to the natural arch of the suspension. (you can see this if you jack up your car, the wheel has a natural arch due to the way its mounted to the car) So lowering the car means the wheels will move a bit inside the fenders. Normally for an 1" to 1 1/2" drop this is about 5-10mm.
If you use coilovers, you can also add some chamber to your setup, the get the wheels more inside. However, mostly this is just for looks, and extreme chamber will negativly inpact your suspension setup (the car gets less stable and less "tight" in corners) But camber and suspension setup is a whole other topic I could write a book about.


Generally, if your goal is the have an agressiv, but still usefull setup on stock suspension in 17", I would suggest the following
8.5x17 +38 or +40 or +44 wheels and 245/40/17 tires (or 235/40/17), all around (front and rear)

I'm leaving you some posts here from different setups, maybe this helps a bit to visualise my theoretical blabla above :-)

8.5x18 +44 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43844
8.5x18 +44 / 9.5x18 +38 staggered http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10406 and http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25099
8.5x18 / 9.5x18 both +44 staggered http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29671


Hopes this helps, feel free to come back with more questions if I missed something

Hi guys,
I recently bought myself a set of Volk CE28 17x7.5 +50 and they look way too sunken in. I'm looking for more of a flush fitment, if anything I'm happy for the wheels to sit inside a little bit. I can't have any wheel poke whatsoever. I've been reading and I'm really confused on what will poke out and what will not. I'm looking to get myself a set of 17x8 +38 or 17x8 +44 but not sure what to go with, please help me out. Much appreciated!
