Hey Joe13BT,

My emails aren't sending out so please do send me pm's for FC wheel fitments.

962 17x7 will fit the FC with your tokico suspension no problem.

Will the mazdaspeed rx8 wheels (which are 18x8 -2 i think!) fit fc's?

Do rx8 wheels in general fit on fc's?

 

I do believe that the RX-8 wheels are a 50mm offset, so will require spacers just like FD wheels. I've seen pics of them on an FC, and I must say that they looked out of place on the car. You also can't really use the stock tires, they're too big.

 

Fronts 17x9.5 w/ 255/40/17 tire. 30mm fender, stance coilovers, i was thinking +18offset?

 

I am currently deciding with keeping stock rim size or upsizing, 16x7 +38mm offset lightweight wheees or 18x8 or 18x8.5 wheels. I want to know whats the biggest tire combo I can safely run on 16x7's with 38mm offset. I Auto-X frequently but they cant be strait slicks, Rain does happen and the car is a DD though I dont mind driving slower in the rain if the dry performance is just godly. So any tire suggestions for a 16X7 with 38 offset? Or am I better off going big

Thanks

 

your going to have similar strut clearance to this, possibly less if your strut is bigger in diameter

 

bastard, thanks. ill go a with a little less.

 

If you have shocks/springs, a 205/55 will fit. A 225/50 will also fit with a spacer in the front.

 

What's the widest Enkei RP03 17" rim I can fit on the front of an FC? Tire size too

 

you could fit an 17x8 but the only offset they offer is a +48 so you would have to get about a 15mm spacer.

 

I just installed my new coil overs (JIC FLT-TARs) and am very pleased at how much the back wheels got pulled in.

My setup:
F 17x8 +35 w/ 225/45/17 Falken Azenis RT-615
R 17x10 +35 w/ 255/40/17 ""
JIC FLT-TARs

I'm thinking about going with 235s with my next set of tires, and maybe 275s in the back if I'm feeling dangerous/ after I see how it handles on the track.

225/50/16 Falken Azenis RT-615s

They're great for autocross and my fiancee daily drives them, so they're not that bad in the rain. And they're also decently cheap for what they are (a lot less than Bridgestone RE-01Rs)

And they're not directional so you can rotate them

 

damn, i was hoping to go wider...i think the 10" wide on the REAR has a +18 offset? so 8" on front with 10s on the back would look silly, eh

Oh, Im also going to be getting some wide body fenders

 

I have 17x10s on the back of mine, look at the post below my reply. Those are flush and are a +35 offset, if you're going to get wide fenders I think +18 would be fine in the back depending on how wide the fenders are.

 

Right now i have FD wheels with spacers, my suspension at this moment is AGXs eibach springs with camber plates up front. What is the largest tire i can fit on these I dont mind rolling the fenders

 

90 gtu with JIC magic FLT-Tar Coilovers.

FRont 17x7 +40
Rear 17x9 +40

what are the fattest tires I can throw on them??? Thanks in advance

(im fine with getting spacers if needed)

 

front 215 or 225? and rear 255 or 265? thats like your range

 

well, i dont know much about tires soo..... would the larger size of each hang over the edges? would the smaller stretch a little?

 

was this toward me or whitelightning

 

Anyone ever run a 215/40/18 on a 18x9.5 et -10 on the REAR of an FC?

I'm looking to do 215/40/17 on the front, with a 9.5 et 15ish wheel, and a 215/40/18 on the rear, with a 18x9.5 et -10 on the rear.

Colorado? Justin? So far I've run closer to a 10"+20/+15 in the rear, but my NA is too weak to spin 235s how I want, so I'm hoping to run less tire.

 

is for whitelightning, on the 17x9 215 considering a stretch and for 17x7 is not a stretch, if you do 265 on the 9 probably will kinda go over. so here is an idea to think what you want to run, stretch tires or just fit the tires on the width you have on your wheel

 

I would run a 7.5" wide for a 215, instead of a 7".

 

Nah, 215s are meant to fit on 9.5" wheels.

Hahahahaha

 

Is +11 too low on a 17X9 wheel? or it can be fit with some fender rolling without looking ridiculously sticking out of the fenders on an FC.
