I just ordered a set of 17x8's, with 225 RE-71Rs. Next is to find an oil cooler and get the crash bolts. I guess I should get something to monitor temps also.

I'm leaning 17x9 with 245's on 200TW. I'm assuming they would fit easily enough inside the car if I swap at the events.

Any clearance issues with stock suspension, what offset?

Looks like we (PCA Potomac) must be the only autox game in town tomorrow - I think 59 pre-registered is a record for us. I see 2 FR-S's on the list. We'll do our best to run a good event.

I'm only a "part-timer" in the sport, but have been around for a long time. My guess is they want to allow appearance mods (+ 1" diameter), not performance mods (+ 1" width).
