I just checked the RPF1 charts. Yes, 5x114.3 have more sizes than 5x100... but those are ridiculous offset sizes. You gonna run 17x9.5 w offset 19? When looks like stock spec gonna come w 17x7~75 w offset of 48... all the right offset for this car (35~48) RPF1 have em in 5x100.

Look at the bright side, we're not getting screwed as BMW owners (5x120 iirc)

So thats great that whether i take the GT4 or the 86 to a track day i can use the same set of wheels/tyres
At the risk of taking the thread off topic... do you use the same size all round for your GT4? Is it an ST165/185 or 205?

I want to use the same BBS RF wheels they used on the VLN race car or WedsSport TC105Ns.

I assume Leeky has a 205.

4x100 with a 17x8 rear wheel. It makes life very difficult.

This sucks! I was praying that I would be able to use my current winter tire setup, which is 5x114 and pretty nice, on this car, so that it would be driveable in the winter! Though I am getting the Subaru version, I assume they will both have the same bold patten.

Also for those that were wondering what the tire dimensions were on the VLN car.

Most of the concepts have a 40 wall, I don't know if that means anything though.
