Still want the 17x8 +35 version! Even a 17x9 +35 would suffice.

It's been my experience that 17x9+42 works for most tires up to 255 with no rubbing. If rubbing, a 3-5mm spacer with Awesome's fits on stock lugs. Also, this nets 17x9 +39 to +37 which is actually better on the outer fender than 17x9 +35 with a 245-255. There are plenty of RPF1 owners that get outside rubbing and need to fender roll or end up running narrower tires to make their 17x9 +35 work.

I own a Toyota Celica. Not an FRS/BRZ.

17's are currently in stock in silver only, although more black ones are on the way. Find them HERE.

Did you know? The first YouTube video upload was called "Me at the zoo." It was posted on April 23, 2005.

Did you know? "The Man With the Golden Gun" was the last complete James Bond novel written by Ian Fleming.

These wheels are, indeed, awesome! Very clean, light weight 5 spoke... I just don't want 9in wide wheels!

17x7.5 or 17x8 and I'm in.

We're working on this. One decision point is whether or not they are going to clear STi Brembos (or other large brakes). If they do, that makes the design work more difficult, and possibly increases the weight a little. Not having to worry about Brembos makes the design easier to implement, and may save a few ounces.

Thoughts?

I really like these wheels, but I'm also in the 17x8 +35 (5x100 only) camp. My car is a daily driver, so BBKs are not in my future.

Are the pics in the op on stock suspension?
