Rim Size and Offset Questions
Posted: Thu Sep 22, 2016 7:23 pm
I am looking to change my rim and tire size next year and have been checking this site and am unsure of which tire width and rim width to select.
Current setup
16x8 offset 50 Mazda RX7 rims with 225/50 16.
KW V3 coilovers RX8 sways
Camber is 1.5 in the front and 2.0 in the rear.
Car is a daily driver and I autox about 16 times a year. I also flat tow it behind my RV for 5000 miles each year.
Looking to improve my autox times.
Trying to decide to go with 235 or 245 tires with either a 17x8 or 17x9. Also not sure which offset would be correct, either 45 or 48. I had to do a mild roll the rear fenders for my current setup.
Thank you for any info
