I plan on getting BFG Sport Comp 2s. I have 9in in the fronts and 10in in the rear (width wheels). Does any body have a similar wheel tire setup? How does it drive? Is it twitchy?

This is for an FC.

I had something pretty close. 235 and 255s wrapped around a set of 17x8 and 9s.

The car rode and handled great! My offset was +35 all around.

Yeah. Im hoping the ride will be a lil more confidence inspiring. My fc has become my daily again and im finally getting 4 new grippier tires to replace my used and bald ones. With the manuel rack its always been twitchy especially in the rain. I want the extra grip from wider tires but I dont want the car to feel twitchy were im scared to drive in the rain. I got into an accident a while back an every time the steering gets shake-y Im alil paranoid.

A 255 in the front with a good alignment and proper offset shouldn't track at all. They are quite smooth on a 17" rim.

My offset is 22mm. I have 225 45 on the fronts. Im putting 255 40 all around.

For that wide, you might need a lil spacer. 10mil or so.

I would put a 245/40/17 front and a 255/40/17 rear.

I think putting the tires on the wheels with a slight stretch is a good bet for handling. a 245/40/17 on a 9" wheel is slightly stretched which is good for handling/turn in/better tire contact patch control.

As weird as it sounds it should give you less understeer as well because of how the tire is stretched a little.

17x9 +24 up front, 255/40/17

Rolled and flared front fenders. Road, track, auto-x - it did it all!

Same as Johnson here.

255/40/17 on 17x9 +24. You'll need to roll front fenders and dial in some negative camber. Depending on rear offset with the 10s you may not need to roll the rear fenders. With rear NT01s I had to roll the rears but NT01s are huge.

The car handles and drives great with 255s all around.

Where can I get wheel adapters that are less then 25mm?

Forgot that you'll need coilovers to run this offset at the front, and tight wheel bearings.

I know Ichiba and Project Kics both make a studded spacer that are less than 25mm
