i rather run 255s, but that'd most likely take more camber than i'm willing to run.
Sebring Ap1 can better answer this but you should assume -3+ which is very typical on most track cars.

I am on 17x9.5 +40 on -3.4° with 255 S04s.
With 7mm additional fender clearance that these +47 will provide, i'm betting you can run -3° pretty easily.
With 245 tires, i'm guessing somewhere between -2.5° to -2.8° depending on how wide the 245 runs.

so not too much camber in other words..

Thanks for all the feedback and tech info. Remember that each car could be slightly different. Some cars have been in accidents. Also the tire size may be different, but some tires are beefier than others.

for fit and color reference:

here was my set about 5 years ago when my car was still berlina... w/255 Azenis RT










here was my second set I sold on this silverstone earlier this year... w/255 Hankook V12






I would be tempted by a set in silver

It looks like you are using the standard CE28N Type A Flat center caps correct? (The metal ones) Can you confirm that there are no issues fitting these caps with these wheels?

thanks, andrewhake & Chris_Lum, for the fitment info. sounds like these are going to take what i thought, right around 3-3.5 degrees of negative camber to be safe. i'm not sure if i can commit to that. like i mentioned to Gruppe-S via PM, i'm currently debating whether to get these or supercharge my S too. i'm leaning towards the s/c kit, esp since I already have my HREs. i think a 17x9 would better suit my needs.

well, i don't want to yank anyone's chain and get their hopes up about me participating. if i jump on these, i'll be a late commit. i like bronze, but i would prefer a non-standard color. i'll keep tabs on this thread. these are sweet wheels and nicely spec'd for the track folks. good luck w/this!

All good definitely keep an eye on the thread. There are quite a few who have shown interest just gotta work things out. Chris and I have been plotting and scheming for these wheels since the beginning of time hahaha.
