Wheel/tire fitments for street/track '23
I am picking up a new '23 tomorrow or Friday! My understanding is that my existing wheels likely won't fit in back without mods...
Current track wheels/tires WedsSport 17x9 +35 with 225/45-17 A052s Titan7 17x9 +37 with 245/40-17 RE71RS Probably going with coilovers, but *possibly* just lowering springs which might affect front fitment... I expect to run 1.25 to 1.5 inches lower than stock in front, and 1" lower than stock in back, with -3.5 front camber and wherever the rear winds up (around -2.5 I reckon). Any hope of running the above wheels/tires on a stock-body '23? Or do I need to go +40, +45, +? to run 17x9? I might end up running different offsets front/rear but would like to avoid that... |

I am i the middle of wheel shopping myself. Would you mind test fitting your current wheels on stock suspension and posting either here, or in this thread? I'm kinda leaning towards just biting the bullet on 10mm front spacers and RPF1s based on what I've read, but may try like +40 hypergrams and just shave the rear fenders to clear if needed.

17x9 ARC-8 +35 w/Bridgestone RE71-RS’s in 245/40/R17
https://www.reddit.com/r/GR86/commen...rc8_17x9_et35/ tbh they don't seem to poke as much on this setup as others. def not enough that I'd care, Kinda thinking +40 or the +37's you have would be fine and save from having to do a spacer up front for the RPF1's in +45. |

Would be nice to be able to run down the 245 RE71RS in practice, but they are too many points to time-trial on (too much ballast to add). I think I'll order up another set of 225s, either RE71RS or RT660 and run them on the Titan7 17x9 +37. That is assuming the 225s on 17x9 +35 fit without rubbing... Problem is it will be at stock ride height until I get either coilovers or lowering springs, so might clear initially then rub when lowered.

The WedsSports with 245/40-17 is a no go without trimming. 225 I'm not so sure.
The titans will likely not work without trimming.
