I don't think everyone is. Not all 245 tires are the exact same width and remember, all it takes is an extra mm of rubber to cause a headache of rubbing. Go with an aggressive rear camber and you should be ok. Then just flip flop the tires when the uneven wear gets pretty visible.

 

yes with the right tires you shouldn't have a problem, so try to get something that is a little smaller in width than the re050....

 

Aren't the RE050's pretty good tires? I don't want to have to put crappy tires on just because the wheels are the incorrect offset.

Argh. I don't want CE's.... any other good tires available in OE AP2 sizes that have a narrower width than the RE050's?

 

If your going with a BBK sometime in the future these high offsets wont work. For a TE37 wheel with an Endless, Project Mu, Winmax, Js Racing type caliper you will have to run in the low to mid +30s offsets and even then you may still need a spacer.

If your are keeping your stock calipers then +48 and +50 is whats offered..Even then the rear is to low for a 255-265 rear tire and the front will work fine with a 215/45 tire.

 

Yeah, I needed a 15mm spacer for my 17x7.5 +48 to clear a Stoptech caliper. And then the wheel was past the fender visibly.

 

I don't think I'm planning on running a BBK anytime soon. I'm having a hard time justifying the cash for wheels as it is
