LOL, I think he's running the same setup I posted 3 posts up.

 

i have 15th m/s kit. im planning to get 17x10front 25 offset with 245/40/17 and 17x10rear 12offset 265/40/17. what you guys think?? any advise??

 

I think youre crazy.
I would rather see you with a +25 front and +35 rear.
might as well run +35 all around actually.

and I'd rather see you step over to a RPF1 because they are just that much lighter. the fno1rc gets pudgy fat heavy in the 10" width.

 

+38 all around with that kit

 

So where did you guys get your wheels from? I'm looking for a set in bronze for a reasonable price...

 

contact rishie at autornd.

His user name is ARD T2. Great guy, he should be able to get you a good deal.

 

I checked with Rishie today and he said RPF1's aren't available for FD in the right offset.

Anyone running FN01-RC 17x9 +43 all around experiencing any rubbing issues up front on 255 40/17 tires??

I don't want to role the fenders nor do I want to worry about it if I lower the car a bit more. It's probably a half inch lower than stock right now at least.

Also open to suggestions on a trackable wheel that is relatively mid range in price and can be safely run in a 17X9 with 255 40/17 at 4 corners.

Did some more searching. I'm going to be dead tired tomorrow. Anyway, if I run 235 40/17 up front will that eliminate any worry of rubbing? And it looks like you need a minimum of 17x10 to get the concave effect right?

Thanks.

275/40/17 rolled fenders fronts 245/40/17 all clear

 

I have street wheels (from 5zigen, but not the FN01-RCs) that are 17x9 +43 with 255's. I had to roll the fenders to stop catching the fender lip. My car is lowered.


FN01-RCs start the concave effect at 9.5".

 

how the hell can u run 235s on a 10 inch rim? wont that ruin the handling.

i would def want the concave look on both front and rear. is there any way to do this w/o ruining sidewall strength?

 

how can the rear not rub? i was running 17 x 9.5 +38 with 275s and was rubbing when i went over large bumps when the suspension compressed.

 

What was your camber?

The rims are brand new with 0 miles with no scuffs or marks on them. The tires are falken 912 with also 0 miles on them. I just bought these, but I plan to track the car and I want another set of wheels. Wheels weight right around 21 pounds.

You can run 17x9" +43 all around with 255/40/17 with NO rubbing, 100% for certain.

All of my customers report NO rubbing with 17x10" +35 all around and 255/40/17 Falken Azenis RT-615. We have sold this setup to many, many FD owners

Also, as you stated, to get the extreme concave effect you will want to have 17x10". 17x9" does have a concave face, but it is not nearly as aggressive as the 17x10".

Our shop is a vendor/sponsor here on RX7 club, and we are running a special on the FN01R-C for the rest of the month as well.

 

Beautiful man!
would like to see more pics.I think I,m going to spring for a set of theese.
Is that a 35 offset in the rear medium concave? do you have just a roll or have you pulled them a bit? it almost looks pulled from that pic,hard to tell.
I would not want less than a 275/40 tire without rubbing.

 

is it ok to to run 275's on a 9 inch rim?

 

I wonder how they drive the car - as in do they track it or autox it.

I run 17 x 9 +45 with 255/40/17. My tires generally don't rub with 2 exceptions:
1. At full lock, the tires rub the inner fenders slightly. No big deal.
2. When pulling in/out of a driveway, the fronts sometimes rub the front fender depending on the arrival departure angle.

I'm running Konis with H&R springs fwiw. Ride height around 25.25 - 25.5"

 

konis w/H&R here too! Did you lower perches all the way?

 

highest setting up front and

middle perch in the rear.

 

I want to run 18x9.5's all around, so what ive read is it doesnt really matter what offset it is itll have the concave look. But does the lower offset have a bigger concave look to it? And what size tires would be the best bet i want something nice n wide in the back, 265s? Just want to hear your opinions.

-Thanks
