The guys in the Engineering department are telling me that we are just weeks away from being able to launch a community Group Buy for all of the new 17" & 18" wheel solutions we have in the works.
With that said, the widest fitments we currently have designed for this release are 17x9.5" and 18x9.5". For 17" wheels, the widest compounds we see track enthusiasts and racers using are 255/40-17's. In 18's, we see both 255/35-18 and 265/35-18. All of these compounds are well supported by a 9.5" wheel to promote good wear and handling characteristics, and weight is kept to a minimum. As you guys know, with the right aftermarket coilovers and negative camber specs, 9.5" wheels are a relatively easy fit.
Edit:
I'd love to hear from the guys requesting 10" wheels in regards to what the perceived value is.
If the demand is there we can certainly add it to the lineup, but I believe wheels this wide only make sense for high HP cars with flares or widebody kits looking to run 275mm or wider compounds.
