Can you get a closer pic of how much stretch? I am getting these exact wheels and tires, just deciding on color and tire size.

Sure, I bought the 8s so I can 1- have better offset, and 2- have headroom to bump up in the future... But I stayed with the 215s because I wanted to keep the rotational mass low, and I didn't want to compromise the ride with a smaller sidewall to offset the width while maintaining the OE overall diameter. Now if I were racing this, I'd be on 245s in a heartbeat :devil:

Needs moar height! j/k
I like the way that looks. Almost looks like it's factory stock and goes well with the color. |

I know people running 9"s in competition (with likely the same exterior face runout as an 8" @35 offset), but the only way they'd clear is after installing coilovers or crashbolts to get over 1.5 degrees of neg. camber... Not first-hand knowledge there, but second-hand.

I absolutely love these wheels. Your car looks amazing with them. Quick question for you, or anyone else who may know.
I plan to track my car, and run 245/40/17 Hankook RS3s. Do you know if this tire would fit on this wheel (same offset) without any rubbing? Would I have issues later, if I lower it 1" via new springs or coilovers? Thanks! |
