Will this fit? (width, offset and tire size Qs)

[altezza280t]

hi experts, im thinking of 17x8.5 +40 square or 17x8.5 +48 square and running 235/40/17 dierezza IIs

will it fit at stock height without camber adjustments? if so will it poke? i dont mind if its not flush, but i do not want any poke. even slightly sunken is ok with me.

thanks a lot!

Tire question?

245/40/18 or 245/35/18 on Xxr 527 18x8.75 +35 lowered on H&R Supersports

245/40's would probably look better since you're on a mild drop(I actually like this sizing for a meaty look), however the 245/35 is going to keep your speedo reading as close as possible to the stock wheel/tires. It's your call...

Thanks! I'm trying to fill in the fender gap so I figured the taller sidewall would help. I'm not too worried about the speedo.

53 pages, wow! Thanks for the sage advice from the pros here.

A couple questions. Why does Tire Rack say stock suspension is limited to 215/45-17 front? Rubbing issues?

Because my plan is to keep the suspension stock height for SCCA Stock class auto-x and mount 245/40-17 Rivals (or equivalent)...

...on Enkei RPF1 with 45mm offset and 6.22" backspace.

But rubbing would be a deal killer unless someone here already tried this with success.

Also, any issues with discarding the tire pressure sensors? I have no use for them. Apparently I'd be looking at an always on dash light that could be disabled.

Thanks in advance, and sorry if this was asked earlier, search didn't show a hit.

will a 17x7 / 5x100 / 47 offset rim at stock height fit the stock tires on the frs?

I would hope so, that's what your car comes with!

I would run the +40 offset and it should fit quite nicely, just a little in from flush. Great fitment.

Not sure if they state that, or just that it's the "recommended size" as in OEM. But you can get alot more tire than stock for sure, especially in the rear.

I'm running 245/35R18 without any issues, so you should be fine depending on wheel offset you choose.

What width? 17x8 or 17x9? You'd need to run one of those widths with 245's.
17x9 is optimum for that width of tire and with a 45mm offset it puts the tire very close to the strut, but perhaps others with experience with this fitment can chime in.

There's lots of cars here running 17x9 RPF1, both in +35, and some with +45. A decent search should give you some solid data.

17x8, but your post #1152 has me reconsidering the original plan, thanks.

Not sure what your autocross rules are, but I would suggest 17x9 +35 RPF1 with 245's. This is the ultimate combo for autocross unless you can find another super light wheel to go with, that fits within your budget.

In a perfect world, the best offset for a 9" wheel is +40, IMO. But +35 has been proven to fit also quite well.

Looking at wheels for my car and unsure if the wheels will fit properly. Possible RB but not wanting to buy 2 sets of wheels. These are dished if that makes a difference. 18x9.5 18x10.5 +32 ... Any help would be appreciated. Wheels will require 5x114.5 spacers/adapters

These offsets going to be before or after the adapters?

Before adapters. Possible rocket bunny kit on its way if they work though
