FITMENT CHECK! 17x9 and 17x10 wheels w/ tires
17x9 +41mm offset Volk Racing GT-P wheels with 255/40/17 tires
17x10 +41mm offset Volk Racing GT-P wheels with 275/40/17 tires.
The set has less than 5000 miles on them. They were mounted on a 1991 Nissan 300zx Turbo, which they fit great
Looking at buying these, they are too good of a deal to pass up... How would the fitment be? +41 seems about right!

would I need coil overs? How bad would the rubbing be? I was planning on doing some suspension mods, but as of right now the car is not on coilovers .

For the 99 brakes you might.. but i measure 25.5 mm pad height needed for the Stop Techs, and the stock brakes would need less than that.

Actually I think that most 17" combinations are actually shorter that their 18" counter parts. That said, most of the problems with fitment on the RX-7 stem from width and offset problems.

They get fairly good reviews actually. They arent a great tire, they arent a Potenza S03 or a G-force KDW or anything, but they are a pretty grippy, high performance summer tire.
The tires werent my choice.. I bought these because I wanted these wheels. They are still about $120 per tire in those sizes, so bascially I'm getting the wheels for $750.
They werent my first choice, but by no means are they a crappy tire
S03s in this size are about $270 a tire, which would make the tires over 1k
