Default widest rims possible for front of stock S2K, will be lowered in near future

i want to get the same size rims for my S2K so i can rotate the tires, so i was wondering what the widest i can go on the front wheels is without rubbing and what offset.

You can go 9", at least + 60 up front.

9" and 255's, if you're stock height. If not, might need to roll the fenders.

But stay staggered, or you'll find yourself oversteering into the guard rail.

Too tall of a sidewall. Might throw off the ABS balance. And what kinda wheels are you running with those anyways?

why? there's two kind of people that buy non-staggered wheel

first one is some time attack track ***** that knows his/her car better than their mother's last name.

the other is cheap skate bastard.

seriously, the car(esp. ap1) oversteer like there's no tomorrow even with 245 rear, put that both on both end is not the best thing to do for daily driver.

maybe you want to have a track set? drifto practice wheel?

you know those G-forces are auto-X cheaters. They run 2 sizes higher than what they are. I have those babies so its like you have a 265 in the back. Mines a 255 in the back so its like a 275. Hella rubbin.

The oversteer on my '02 S2K is nowhere near crazy, and I'm running 245 size tires in the rear.
