Will this fit? (width, offset and tire size Qs)

I haven't used those tires, but mine were 235 Federals, and those are more like a 245.

I would stick with the +35, personally. Not sure how close you'd be to the front spring perch, though.

What he said ^^, try to get a +35 offset.
You will have good clearance from the spring perch, at least 10mm and it will not rub on the fenders either.

I just ran a trackday with my 18x9 +35 and no rubbing at all.

Will this fit? 18x9.5 +34 all around? I currently have coils, and plan on dropping 1.6" all over. Any recommendations for tires to be used? Will i need to roll/pull fenders? How much camber would be needed to make this set-up flush? Thanks!

I have winter wheels and tires from my previous car and am hoping they fit the BRZ. The rims are 17x7.5 and the tires are Firestone Winterforce 225/50R-17's.


EDIT: I bought these from Tirerack and just checked and it says they fit the BRZ. Very cool, since this car will definitely need winter tires!

Thanks guys. It's so hard to find my bronze 527s. I was also thinking that gold 530's would look good on the red, but I suck at style. Of course, I do also realize, "It's my car so I should roll on what I feel like," but I also don't want to look like a tool. The Red 18x8.5 +38 are available. Thoughts?

Here she is. Do we have any Photoshop artists here that could put 527s in matte bronze, or 530s in gold on for me. You would forever be my hero!

All i have right now is my cell phone.. Gimme a couple mins ill have something maybe

I cant get the recolor to match the real bronze wheels (this car has black ones)
Let me try something else

[jshadeck]

There. The rims are perfect lol
(The reds a little off but u get the idea lol its my cellphone afterall...)

I was hungry so didn't spend much time on the mask (this was a white car with silver wheels). Try not to look at the blurry rear. But I think I got the colors close, though the red is a bit...bright.



Bronze on red sure looks nice. But then bronze goes with pretty much anything.

The color is perfect. I really wish they made the 530s in matte bronze. They look much better than the 527s. Availability has a lot to do with it though

Thank you so much. I didn't expect to get any results so quickly. You guys rock. Now how to I cp you guys for a job well done.

The red on this is actually pretty BA. Easy to do now with all these vinyl wraps coming out. There is a place near me that created this beast. This car follows the Run For Your Lives 5k, which is extremely fun.

Aaah, reading fail. Didn't realise you said gold for the 530s. Well, doesn't matter. Gold wheels look awesome on red!

I didn't reply due to not knowing for sure. But...TiC has 9.5 +30 all around on their car, maybe see what they say. 4mm isn't much, but it could be the difference between rubbing and not rubbing.
