Default Wheels for a 275/35/15 R6 Hoosier?

Currently I am running a 15x8 on a 225 wide Hoosier but I want to try out the 275/35/15 up front on my Prelude. I want to try a 15" wheel that is at least 9" wide but I prefer 9.5" wide if available. They would need to be a 5x114.3 lug pattern and in the vicinity of 20mm offset. Anyone know of a wheel would match this criteria and be somewhat lightweight?

There is nothing on the market with that bolt pattern, width, and offset. There was talk of getting a special run made by Rota on the Subaru forums (nasioc), but I haven't heard anything new on that, and getting more people to get in on a 5x114 bolt pattern is challenging (subaru fitment is a 5x100 iirc).

I run a 15x10.5" three piece kiezer wheel on the front of my DSP ITR with the 275's. IMO, you definitely want a wheel that is 10" wide or a touch wider. Narrower will work, but you'll have to run fairly high tire pressures to keep the tire shoulder alive.

BTW, I have some half used A6 275's for sale. 2 pairs, $200/pr + shipping. Cheaper way to make sure they'll fit, and can be used for qualifying/practice to iron out the bugs instead of potentially killing a new pair of tires. PM me if you're interested.

You're looking at custom wheels..
Spinwerkes
Diamond Racing
Keizer
might see if 949racing.com can get you a custom 15x9 6Ul wheel, or just a blank that you can have drilled yourself.

I'm set up with Real Racing Wheels to do wheels for Hondas. I'm running 15 x 10 Reals on the front of my Civic. Drop me a line at dhardy001 at gmail dot com if you want to talk about your options.

Exospeed may be an option for your too.

[QUOTE=solo-x;38854662](subaru fitment is a 5x100 iirc)QUOTE]

06' - present Imprezas are 5x114.3 but most subie wheels in that bolt pattern are going to be 17" and up.
