looks meaty with a 245/40 haha

OK, last minute gut check, and this thread seems to be full of sane people when it comes to fitment.

245/40/17
on
17x8.25 +35
on stock suspension.

Issues? Comments?

It should fit with no problems.

Stock suspension should be easy. I'm sitting around a 2" drop with almost your same setup (245/40/17 18x8.5 +35) and it rubs a little bit in the rear but the nittos on my car run wide.

Jive Turkey · 05-18-2015, 12:43 PM

my new setup. still the exact same specs as before. 9.5 +40 with a 265/35 RE-11.

only thing different is i changed out the rear cusco arms for SPC, and then i dialed in more camber in the front and toed it out slightly.

car goes to paint next week. skirts finally arrived after the first shipment being broken.

decided to go back to where i shot my STi in the first post of this thread, and see what i can do with the brz. funny how time flies...

Seriously man?!! You should post a NSFW warning before posting those pics...

I really like those center caps that cover the lugs, very cool.

57getters are so nice. I find them more on the blingy side of the spectrum for more show car status but but these look great with meaty tire making me rethink my first impressions!

mkivalex · 05-23-2015, 01:56 PM

Could you please share your alignment specs?.

Have been gradually getting meatier and meatier, 245, then 255, and now 265/35R18 RS3 on 18x9+35 wheels.

The car is setup for the track and really hooked up well with the new rubber. Who says there is such a thing as too much tire!
