This thread applies to those who have SSR GT3s on their cars.

I am in the market for some new tires. I've gone on tire-rack and found a little bit of a discrepancy between some of the data and what I have on my car. I currently have on BFG KDW2s: 215/40/18 front and 245/35/18 rear. When I checked on optional rim size of 18 (I had my car loaded) the recomended sizes came in as a 225 front and 255 rear. When I contacted my sales clerk, he told me that 255s would require the fenders to be rolled. I would need a specific offset for the 225s to work in the front, otherwise I need to stay with 215s. When i looked for rim and tire packages, (I know the GT3 is no longer available for the S) I found some other rims with the same widths as the GT3s I found the recomended sizes to be 225 front and 245 rear.

So my question to those who have SSR GT3s on their S2000s, what tire sizes are you running both front and rear? Note: I have a stock suspension setup.

I was looking into the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3s, but the front size only comes in 225s. I can't get 215s in those tires. Otherwise I'll have to stick to the KDW2s. Not that I don't like them, but I'd like to try something else for a while and decide from there. I can get either 245 or 255s in that tire.

Any help from tire-rack would be apreciated as well.

thanks.

What are the widths and offsets of the wheels?

Width: 8.0 front 9.5 rear. I cannot remember the offsets. If they are on the purchace reciept, I could look on there, but I don't think so. I'm at a loss with offsets. That's why I was hoping someone else with these specific rims could help me out a little.
