Wheel offset advice?? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

What's the deepest offset I can run without having to go widebody, stretch my tires, or add excessive camber? I'm looking into buying 17x9.5 te37v ba. Want them as deep as possible while being flush with the fenders and having -2.0 camber at most.

To give you a reference, my Weds are 17x9, ET35, lowered on Tein Flex Z (maxed low on the front, even-ish rear).

Alignment specs:

That is with 245/40/17 tires iirc.

For 9.5 wide wheels, offset would have to be +40 to be similar to my set up.

First, suggest wheels that someone makes for the FRS/BRZ.

Yea, I didn't realize those don't come in our size.

Just out of curiosity, what other suspension supportings mods are you currently running with those Flex Zs? I might copy your set up huehuehue.

Just Whiteline rear LCA to correct camber as much as I can. I think I messed up the install on the passenger side since they couldn't even it out with the driver side.
