The wheels I'm planning to purchase at this point don't appear to be listed in any of the threads as something people have tried/confirmed fitment for, but the size is a match from some BBS wheels so I'm pretty confident about this. That said, it never hurts to ask the experts and verify first before I drop $3k on wheels.
2017 BRZ Limited, I'm planning to put Volk ZE40 Time Attack Edition 8Jx18 ET44 wheels mounted with Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Positions 225/40R18 tires. If my calculations are correct the scrub radius should be positive compared to stock by less than 1mm and I should be able to clear the suspension components with these wheels/tires without a problem.
Can someone confirm fitment for above: 8Jx18ET44 225/40R18?
Also, any opinions on the plastic hub centric rings from hubcentric-rings.com? Looks like I'll need a 65.0mm to 56.1mm ring for a perfect fitment to the wheel hub on a BRZ.

18x8 +44 will fit perfectly with 225/40 tires. Volk wheels are awesome! (and expensive) S0-4's are good tires too.
Plastic hub rings work perfectly. They also wear out over time compared to a metal rings. (it still takes many wheel on/off cycles)
