Hey guys im about to buy some rpf1 17x9+45 all around but have some quik questions regarding handling

whould 9 all around give good cornering?

or whould 8 in front and 9 in rear be better at corner ?

i like to take real hard turns when im turing so help me out guys


which is better for cornering
17x9+45 all around or 17x8+45 in front and 17x9+45 in rear

 

I'd guess that your tire choice would affect your handling (either positive or negative) than what size rims you install.

 

i would go with 17x8 infront and 17x9...youre gonna want to have wider ones in the rear since its rwd...havent heard of anyone running the same size all around but thats just my opinion

 

Tons of people on here running 9 all around.

i run 17x9 on 255-40 all around. compared with the oem setup it stays planted much better, esp since i'm running nitto nt-01s

 

if u run the same tire size all around like 255, then u better be able to handle a lot of understeer

 

^oversteer. Understeer will be almost impossible with a 255 up front....unless you're running a massive wing.

 

I am running the same set up and the first thing i felt was like the car was running on rails!

I did do a canyon run on my set and let me tell you... I wasnt going anywhere.

 

Actually the car tends to understeer stock. running a non staggered setup with make the car more neutral but also tend to oversteer more. Handling comes down to more than just the wheel size. Suspension, tire, alignment all come into play on how a car is going to handle.

 

tons of people run non-stag w/ 255 a common size.

with a non stag setup, your car is more prone to oversteer with inputs
but with control you will gain more stability under braking.

its all about your driving style, there is no "better" setup.
many are many who prefer staggered, and many non- staggered.

by describing your driving style as "like to take turns hard" this can mean alot of different things ex. throttle hard, turn in sharp, braking hard?

preference will vary from driver to driver
