Wheels

[Nick]

I was going to put a set of 17s on my car. I know very little about fitment and sizes what works well with stock arches. Wouldn’t mind 18”s but seems like most opt for 17. Any advice and options are welcome.

Was thinking of bronze rota GTR style or maybe te37 if they came up at the right price.

Literally have the same question. Don’t want to roll the arches. Trying to figure this out too.

Most seem to have rolled arches, but not keen on that.

Did you get to the bottom of this?

I had 18s when I first bought the car.
9.5J front
11J rear. No arches were rolled in the making of this.

I had RX-8 wheels on for a while..
No arch scraping as I remember.

I've played it safe. Gone for Regamasters but in 17"

No problem, tyres were stretched like hell on the rear though

Ahh right.
