@SP86
Here is some more pics, had a little less meat on the wheels when these pics were taken. Getting some new tires in the rear (245/45 RE-11 rear and have 225/45 A048 front) will post how it looks when ever my tax return decides to come in.

About 6kg lighter a corner than the stock rim and tyres (18,3-18,7kg). Feels good.

Anyway, here's my current setup. Didn't plan on it, but the price of the wheel/tire combo was supa cheap, so I went for it. I like the way it handles too. xxr something something, 16x8 +20 225/50/16 car sits a little higher today, since it got an alignment

What sized tires did you put on them? Which suspension and camber are you running?

OR 245/40R17 on 17x8 et35 Kosei K4R 15.8lbs wheel wrapped in Bridgestone RE-11a? Neither seem like they would rub stock suspension lowered .8" with -1.1 camber. since the offset is further from the car. I run on small tracks and autox and daily drive so according to what you mentioned earlier wider would be better in that case.

We were on 235/40/18 before and it is noticeably more comfortable to drive on this setup. Also, I can sort of feel the wider footprint since these wheels have a lower offset and stick out further than the 18" I had before. I mostly went with the 16" setup not only because I love the way it looks, but also because this is a daily driven car on terrible roads in Denver, CO, so the taller sidewall makes it a bit more bearable on the track suspension (more cushion for the pushin!)
