Hey I own a 1987 rx-7 turbo-2 and gonna plan to run XXR 530 rims with BFGoodrich g-force T/A KDW-2 tires; my front tires would be 235/40ZR17 and rims be 8.25 (+25 offset), and my rear tires would be 255/40ZR17 and rims be 9.75 (+25 offset).
My question is will I run into any problems in running this setup?? Any help would be great, thanks.

Not the best with offsets and such, but I'm running a 9.5 +16 up front on megan streets, and mine clears just fine. If that helps your case any? but im sure it will fit.

I'd love +20s or +17s, but what I'm looking at they don't come in that size :/

18x8 / 18x9 +35
245/35/18 – 265/35/18
(After alignment: Rear camber nearly maxed at -1.3, front is -0.3, No rubbing over bumps/making Uturns)… Just really careful when navigating sketchy driveways.
(Gave the guys the alignment specs from fc3spro.com, but they still did the OEM specs.)
Rolled front fenders
Coilovers (30 way adj. Front:10 Rear:15)
Rear camber bar

I wouldn’t mind some opinions… lower or wider (flip wheel faces to make +25).... To be quite honest, I was about to purchase/searching for bronze 17x9 TE37 ~+22ish all around. I kinda took a jump in another direction.

gorgeous setup ! me want

I have a 88 vert. I was wondering if a 17 x 8.25 in the front and a 9.75 in the rear will fit. Both with +20.

was looking at the rota p45 17x9 wheels do these work, I have stock suspension 4x114 bolt pattern, these seem to be the only option without going custom made for 4x114
