I haven't seen seen any FCs with those wheels, and I love six spoke styles. I take it, the staggered fitment for the rear will fight fine? As for the fronts, you said they would rub even with coilovers, how much did you have to space them out? For the front they also make them in 17x7.5 in +33 +41 +49 and 17x8 +31 +36 +41 +48 I was also looking at the Gram Light 57Maximum, but they don't appeal to me the way the SSRs do.
ps, has anyone seen an FC with 5Zigen pro racer GN+? I think I like those better than the Gram Lights that I mentioned.
Thanks guys for the help.

Thanks for the help guys, those wheels are pricey and I want to get something what will fit. It might be a while before i get them, but I'd rather do my research now then be hasty and have nasty fitment.
Josh, you said 245/40 for the front, what do you suggest for the rear with the stagger? maybe 255/40?

in front, tire size is limited by your suspension setup, and i dunno what you have.
225/45/17 is the safe bet, and you can always go wider in the future.
in your case, i woud recommend the 17x8 +31 all around. 225/45 front and 245/40 rear.
depending on your susp, you can run up to 255 front on that wheel. (i did on tein flex's)

Hey I have a question myself now. I use to run 17x8 17x9 +35 offset just fine on my fc. But now i'm curious if i could fit 17x9 +15 and 17x10 +12 with LOTS OF CAMBER.. will it fit with my stock body? itd be recommended to run over fenders. i'm mainly concerned if it will hit my coilovers. it'd more than likely be running same tire sizes i'm running right now or maybe bigger if possible. 225/45/17 255/40/17

Fitment question! Ive always had a thing for Rota Slipstreams (yes I know they're honda wheels) and I've done some research and I know the hub on the Rota's is smaller than an FC. So, I was thinking if I spaced them out then that wouldn't be a problem.
I was thinking of either 17x8.5 +35 with a 1/4" spacer. Stance GR+ coilovers and stock fenders.

? Aftermarket wheels will usually have a hub bore large enough to accomodate any car, so I doubt that they'll be too small for the FC. You'll want to confirm that information with a dealer.

EDIT: Checked it. The FC is 59.6, the Rota's are 56.1. I would space them out any way because they would probably rub my coilovers at full lock.
