Default 19" track wheels, size recommendations.

I am going to order some 19" wheels for track use on my .2 GT3, Most likely going with Forgelines. Will 9.5" front and 12.5" rear fit under the GT3? or I should stick with 9" & 12'?
Also what is the difference between the GA1R and new GS1R?

My plan is to run 265 front an 325 rear tires. Maybe try 295/345 down the road.

Thanks.

I've got an extra, brand new set of 265/325 Trofeo-R tires for sale. These are easily the best 19" track tires available that can be driven. Almost as fast as a Hoosier, but very driveable daily. I use them on all my cars.

Let me know.

You can go 9.5" up front if you plan to run fairly aggressive camber with the R7's, but I would recommend sticking to a 12" wide rear (especially with the 265/325 combo).

The GS1R's have a bit more lightening detail, more evident on 5 lug wheels, however there is still a few subtle weight saving variations between it and the original GA1R. Mainly the chamfered outer lip on the GS1R.

Shooting you over a PM as well!

Do the GT3 an RS share same wheels offset values when using 19x9.5 & 19x12 wheels?
