8.5
35~38
Hyper Silver, Gold

I don't see a lot of options for 8.5 width either.. I feel like 8 is too narrow and 9 is too wide.

Bump

Looks like 17x8.5 is quite popular. I'd have to agree, how you guys can work something out @CSG David

Let me know if you need preorders ^_^

8.5
48-43
Grey, Silver

8.5 will be great for a 245 road or track tire. Won't stretch an all-season/summer tire and will be just wide enough for a track tire. 8.5 will also have enough clearance from the spring perch for those running stock shocks without having to go with an offset that is too low (lower than 40 sticks out too much).

17x7 , light, ET42 ish. Anthracite/darker silver. Would be perfect on this car with PSS 215/45s or similar.

Hyper Black is darker than hyper silver and SBC looks like a chrome finish.

Just going to throw in another vote for 17x8.5, +35~40. Some shade of black or dark grey. There aren't many options for nice wheels this size that are also lightweight and not $900/wheel special order.

17x9.5 35-40offset. red, blue, silver

Another vote for 17x8.5, +35~40. My favorite is Grimmspeed gold, which is what I painted my current 18x8 wheels off of my previous car (VW R32). 2nd favorite is probably normal flat aluminum color that most wheels are. Black you just can see the wheel very well and liked it less the more I had it on my evo 9.
