Thank god. This info came from Candi at aspecproducts.com

So in your opinion, I could fit a BBK and the fronts wont stick out any further than the rear correct? Obviously I will be rolling my fenders on the front/rear no matter what.

These guys made the right choice :

https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-wheels-tires-brakes-suspension-55/calling-all-wedsports-owners-101984/

Or

http://www.yokohamatire.jp/yrc/japan..._rz/index.html




RE30 is good but it already existed for quite some time. CE is good but too many replica/copied version. Volk GTS Phantom is the best looking among your picks but looks heavy.

i LOVE wedssport tc005s. i absolutely LOVE them. and i HATE myself for not buying a set of 17x9s, when tirerack had them on closeout for $159/piece. i really want those rims. hopefully. eventually.

and i cry because they arent made anymore.

Yes you can run 275 on all 4 corners without rolling but the offsets must be +45 on a 9.5" wheel.

If my car wasn't in storage for the winter, I'd test my rears on the front end for you. My 8.5 +34et GTS fits fine with the RB 13"BBK, with some room between the spoke and caliper. Good chance it will clear.

There's a good chance you will still rub after rolling the rear fenders, without any camber modification. Chances are greater if you run 275s, have rear passengers, and/or hit a big dip, bump.

Like all of your options, but love the CEs the best.
