I think the front will be a problem. might need to roll the front fenders.

Is there anyone running 17x9 +10? My 20mm adapters are being a pain, the acorn nuts dont sit flush with my adapters thus hitting my wheel (my wheels dont have pockets on the back of them) so I was thinking of ordering 25mm.

I'm guessing you weren't able to fit your current wheels to see if they fit?

Either way 17x9 +15 or +10 is a ton of poke.

Not sure what your setup is, but you would need pretty severe camber to tuck those wheels in.

Sadly no i wasent, my studs also hit my wheel's so I couldn't get a good idea on how much poke i would be getting with my 20mm
I use to run 16x9.5 +16 with around -2.ish camber, so if i have to run -3 or -3.5 that wont bother me at all.

Sounds like you know what you're up against already, so I don't think another 5mm will cause an issue.

Normally, I would refer these questions to the "Aggressive wheels" thread, but I know you're there already.

Well my fear was since im going to 17's I would have to run alot more camber, like -4 or even more, -3.5 is really the max I would like to run since im also on stock toe arms with just PBM LCA.

Stock brz. I have hotchkis sport springs. 1" drop.


Looking for some wheels that I won't have to do a ton of work to make fit.


Are 18x9.5 too wide in the front? I noticed on other cars there is a bit of poke. I don't like that. I love how it sits in the rear, however. Can I get away with using camber bolts in the front to remedy this?


Recommended offset and tire size if that is an acceptable wheel width? I see +38 is a common offset. Will I have any problems running a 245/35/18?


Again, this is with a 1" drop.

Max you will likely be able to fit up front without coilovers is 18x9, ideal offset is around +35.

There's more room out back, so you could run a wider rear wheel or stay square. Even with a 9" wheel up front, you can easily run a 245 or even a 255 if you have the right wheel offset.

Speaking based on personal experience, 18x9.5 +38 with camber bolts will be no problem on the front with up to 265 tires.

The rear will be perfect but you will rub on the INSIDE of the front at full lock.

You won't need any fender mods to fit this.

Depends on the offset, and the tires you want to run. However they will most probably stick out of the fenders, but if the offset is not to low they should fit (but again, they will stick out). If you post the offset and tires you want to run I can help you more.
