I suppose you're right. I thought they had their specs broken out like most other wheel companies. If Tire Rack list them at that spec, they probably are. You could always reach out to them to confirm. |

Paging @mixxxx and @CL._.86
I am also trying to find out if 57DR 17x9+38 wheels require spacers or not. Especially on a BRZ with Performance Package and completely stock suspension. (No camber bolts, stock struts, etc). Also, is there any rubbing on the fenders in the front (fenders not rolled) or any rubbing at full steering lock? Looking at getting these wheels and run some 245/40R17 tires (not sure what exactly, possibly RS4 or RE71R or perhaps something less sticky at first). Can anyone please confirm if 57DR 17x9+38 wheels fit on an otherwise stock BRZ PP ? Thanks! Fluke |

Could you please confirm if you have (or had at that point) a completely stock suspension or not? How close are the spokes to the Brembo calipers in the front? Thanks! Fluke |

if you go to OZ's website, you can find the full size listings that they produce. tire rack doesn't have every size known to man. (they're also very conservative with recommended fitments.) the 17x7.5's do exist as far as i'm aware. no idea if they clear PP/RS/tS brembos, but i would imagine they do based on the spoke design. |

@spike021 has 17x9 +38 57DRs as well (thread here)
I think he's lowered on RCE Yellows but the coil diameter should be similar so that you can compare the spacing to the inside of the tire. |

I did need 3mm spacers in front because I don't have camber plates, and the tires I chose (Continental ExtremeContact Sports) have a wider sidewall than I initially expected at the time. So they were touching the strut perches ever so slightly. I'm running -1.6 or so in front with camber bolts right now. I'd assume with less negative camber I would've had better clearance. That or, of course, using camber plates as well.

did you have the 3mm spacer on in those pictures, or were those pictures taken without the 3mm spacer? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Those were taken without the spacer! I drove around for a few weeks and even did a track day with no spacer and there were no issues, but it did make me nervous so I put on the 3mm spacers later.
