Hey everyone I have wedssport tc105n wheels on order in a 17x8 +49 and a 17x9 +49 I planned on running stock tire sizes in michelin pilot supersports. But my friend told me the fronts will look stretched on there and i should have went with a 225/45/17 instead . I thought michelins run wide also so i thought that would help. I plan on being on coilovers and having a decent drop and dont really want to mess with pulling the fenders and worry to much about messing anything up. I know i will at least have to relocate the fender bracket.



Thanks in advance

Mpsp will look stretched on oem wheels, so they will definitely look stretched on wheels that are .5" wider. I would stick with the 215 front to keep the same rotational diameter front & rear (215/245), or switch to a tire that offers a 225 & 255.

Ok after looking on google for 2 hours l found a post on a Miata forum that happen to have the same wedssports tc105n in 17x8 with a Michelin pilot super sport in a 215/45/17.

Dont think it looks to bad at all actually thank god lol

why dont you just get different tires?

Because the offset is not close to stock and I don't want to pull fenders or have crazy camber

I would get the new Continental extreme contact sports in 225/255. Would fit nice on those wheels and they are excellent.

Wouldnt that be like having a 17x8 in +39 and a 17x9 +39 instead ?

TIRE size does not change WHEEL offset.

Or am I misunderstanding your question? I don't think I am TBH.

No it would be half of that. 5mm per side of the rim. But considering the pss run narrow, it could be 10mm depending on the tire choice. If you dont want to risk having to get into fender rolling, stick with these.

s2000Junky

You are misunderstanding. He is looking at fitment equivalence, not to be taken literally with regard to the rim offset. He is thinking about fitment right, just the wrong amount.
