Wheel Fitment Help.
Hello everyone!
Just looking for a little assistance with wheel fitment. I have 3 wheels that Im looking at now that are in opposite sides of the triangle. According to S2 specs they range from mild to moderate. I did a little bit of research and cant seem to find pics of the 18's to compare
Wheel 1 - 17x8.5 +32 with 245/45/17 square set up
Wheel 2 - 17x8 +55 with 245/45/17 square set up
Wheel 3 - 18x9 +32 with 245/40/18 square set up
I have front and rear fenders rolled and tab relocated.
Sitting tucked on stock Ap2V1 rear set wheels with 245/45/17
Tein Flex set to the stiffest which we all know is quite soft.
Last pics teken of my car before storage.
Car will be daily driven in the summer time and will travel approximately 70-80km a day
Any pics, suggestions and preference to these fitments and why would be appreciated.
Thanks
Paolo

Depends on how much your fenders are already modified or how much you want to modify them. Wheel 2 would fit stock fenders while wheel 1 is aggressive. Why not go for a 9 inch wheel square? Or something bigger in the rear?

Because I'm curious as to what kind of wheels he's buying. I'm sure I'm not the only one here that would like to know.

Hey Dan I bought took Trans car. Im sure you know the set up he had with the bronze CE's and the Black CCW's.
As mentioned in my OP the front and rears have been rolled already. Tabs are relocated. Rocking a -3 camber all around.
Wheels are:
17x8.5 +32 - 245/45/17 = Silver SSR Type F
17x8 +55 - 245/45/17 = Mugen MF10
18x9 +32 - 245/40/18 = Concave Face SSR Type F (I can get with or without tires. If I need to get different size to make these fit I can.

The 17 x 8.5 + 32 wont be concave? Not a fan of those wheels unless its with the concave face.
Love the mugen mf10s but as someone mentioned already you dont want to be going with a smaller wheel than stock in the rear.
Personally fitment aside I find 17s suit the car way more than 18s.

good way to figure out how much mroe the new wheels will stick out compared to your current set up. Measure the gap you have right now and that'll give you an idea.
