does anyone know if a 17x10.5 inch rim with a tire that has a tread width in the area of 12. 5 inches and a section width of 13 to 14 inches will fit on the rear and not stick out or rub?
given that i can find a rim of that size with the correct backspacing? basically what is the widest tire that will fit with the car lowered with eibach pro kit?
Thanks

Hey tony not to sure about running anything wider than 11'in out back. I have ssr gt10 wheels that are 18x9 up front with 18x9.5 in the back with pirelli rosso wheels with 10'in of tread out back and with the lower spring it fills the wheels nicely but when i had the car up they looked to only be maybe another inch of rubber you could put back there so im not to sure if 13' or 14'in will fit but hey someone has to try it...let us know how it goes.GL

I have 17x10's in the rear with 275/40 17" tires or 26x11.5-17. The line up with the fender, but don't stick out.
