Wheel fitment
 
Just basing this off of the VLN race car and an assumption on the width of the wheel. but is my math correct that this will fit depending on fender clearances? No, this isn't a "hellaflush" setup its meant to be an aggressive fitment set up. ex. widest tire+widest wheel=greater contact patch. This is an aggressive width, at least for what I'm used to being from the fwd crowd, not saying I'm gonna go with this but what are your guys' opinions.

This might be fine for the rear but I doubt it will work up front.

^One thing, the wheel they used in VLN was 17x7.5 not 17x7... & prob OEM tires gonna come w 215/45/17 setup

^Now, that looks right

That would be perfect fit, but it will upset the balance and have a crazy push into the turns because lack of power and less grip up front.

understandable^ this will hopefully be followed up with coil overs and some sort of power adder once warranty runs out and im not gonna track the car till warranty runs out anyhow, but thx for the info.
