Height and fender work are not a issue, I've done more than enough in that area. i think I'll do what makes sense and go with the f14 in 10. Faster, can pick my offset, cheaper to replace and easier to source. I've raisd my car twice now and I still may not be track duty height. I have a 3in drop 3 degrees of -camber and my rs3's are wearing evenly. Im on custom valved bilstein pss9 with 12k-11k swift springs. My effective current off set is 17x8 et24 so fitting a 17x10 et50 is zero added work.

 

After being in Japan for the last 3 weeks I'm now looking at the spoon cr93 17x9.5 et63 also. Found them cheaper than the forgestar.

So it's down to the 9.5in cr93, the 10in f14 and 10in 949 6ul wheels

 

17x9.5 Spoon cr93 is the winner. Based on my chosen budget and width requirements these were the wheels I disliked the least. Thank you everyone for your input.

 

 

No its not of spec. The Hoosier 225 R7 is a DOT-R with a section width of a 245mm.

didn't acknowledge the word Hoosier. but just about every normal street tire, a 225 is out of spec on a 9.5.

That's correct. However Hoosier isn't a street legal tire. Any exclusive racing tire should be address on an individual basis for ideal fitment. They typically have a different material carcass and profile then a street tire.

 

Did you end up getting the cr93 in +63, and how did they fit in the front? I'm thinking of doing the same but sounds like you need some spacers and you can still rub at full lock
