Most popular wheel/offset/tire size for the S?
Well, what seems to be the most popular combo?
Post Example:
Front: (17" x 7.0", +55 offset, 225 tire)
Rear: (17" x 8.5", +65 offset, 245 tire)
Post Example:
Front: (17" x 7.0", +55 offset, 225 tire)
Rear: (17" x 8.5", +65 offset, 245 tire)

Or
Front: 17 x 7.5 +48
Rear: 17 x 8.5 +54
this is probably more popular though
front: 17x7.5+50, 225/45-17
rear : 17x9+63, 255/40-17
Only because there are so many people running Volks

[AP2-2NV] add the popular tire size for the rims. I think this might help people wanting to put wheels on there car because these are proven sizes and offsets or they wouldn't be popular.

17X9 +63
RE30
17X7.5 +50
17X9 +63
TE37
17X7.5 +48
17X9 +65
All these uses a recommended size of 225/45 17 front and 255/40 17 rears. No rubbing and no modification.
This is a good thread because recently I been getting alot of pm asking if the above sizes will rub and what kind of modification were needed to correct the rub. THERE IS NO RUBBING ISSUE.
Sorry for the caps but I think there are too many post regards to the +45 offset from the other brand that rubs without roll and people start to think every brand of wheel will rub.
It's easy to post this won't rub with this modification done. I wonder how many bought those sizes and regret because they simply don't want to modify body panels, run skinnier than oem size tires, or dial more neg camber.
Sigh...
