tires help with buddyclub rims!
kay editting this post**
talked with a representative at buddyclub here in the us, and there was a special setup made for the S. now im just wondering whats the best tire size for these rims. please help.
BuddyClub P1 Racing QF Rims
Front: 17 X 8, 45 offset, 5x114.3
Rear: 17 X 9, 63 offset, 5x114.3
i know the offset is low for the front, but this is the highest offset in this wheel size and supposedly made for the s2k.

With that low of an offset in the front you could run the 215/45R17 front and 245/40R17 rear if you want the safest fitment and no rubbing. If you go with the 225/45R17 front I would run the 255/40R17 rear. This will keep you in the same stagger as the OE set up for the best handling.
If I can help let me know.

I asked Buddy Club about those rims and they said that they don't have a d.o.a. for them.
Because they are working on the demand in Japan 1st. the U.S. is second. Would love to get a set of those rims though.
