Yes they clear but VERY close, 3 mm spacer will give you no problems and a thumb gap for assurance

Btw @protpibe I had the gtf2 18x9 and they cleared my sti brembo calipers :p its kind of a shame I sold the brembos because I found out my new wheels would have cleared them


btw x2: Just realized I'm speaking to the owner of one of my favourite builds on the forum! I actually may have copied you by going Enkei and getting the turbo kit... just waiting on my gtx2867 and we're in business xD

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery Did you get the RS05rr as well? I'm absolutely in love with these wheels on this car.

And thanks for the compliment. I've put in a ton of work, and its nice to hear that others think it looks as good as I think it does haha.

I think i want to stick with 17x9 just for weight and cost of rubber. I'm pretty sure they'll clear with the +35's, but I just want to make sure before I order them.

I walked into the store to buy the RS05 and then a day later i ended up with two sets of RPF1s... I really like the RS05 but I was to afraid to track with them because my local track is a notorious wheel breaker

The difference in rubber cost is huge, there is almost a $100 difference in tire cost (each) between the 18" and 17" tires for your 245-255 sizes

You don't even want to know what the cost difference is between your average summer 245/45/17 and 265/35/18 Michelin Pilot Super Sport lol

** and I'm canadian, so I'm paying 1.2x US funds. ugh.

Yup same but I'm in Ontario xD 255 35 18 rs3 were 350 per tire, I ended up picking up a set of re11a in 245 40 17 for 800 tax in :0

YOu can buy them from here now.

https://www.trackwerks.com/shop-whee...-35-5x100.html

YOu will likely have to pay about 50$ in import duties. Keep that in mind.

Shipping would be about 150ish. At least that was the quote to me for shipment to Oregon.

Looks like Trackwerks jacked up the price of the wheels to cover "free shipping". The GTF1s were $179-189 per wheel, now they are $238. Kinda sucks, I wish I ordered them earlier.
