17" Hoosiers on RS America
Has anyone run a 295/35ZR17 and 245/40ZR17 Hoosier R6 combo on 10x17" and 8.5x17" wheels on a 964 narrow body? I have an RS America track car and some new Fikse's in these sizes, and am trying to run as wide as possible.
I know that 275's for the rear are common, but there is quite a large outside diameter difference between the 245/40 and 275/40 front/rear tires, and it's slightly less with the 295/35 rears. The overall section width between the 275's and 295's is only 0.6" according to Tirerack specs. Going to the 245/45 fronts will most likely be much too tall, as I have run 235/45 Yokohama A048's in this size and they have rubbed a little. My fenders are all rolled very well.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Roland

Geoff Newman,
I got your message about the 295's on your white RSA. Tried to email you back in return, but it was returned saying that your email address was invalid.
I lap at PR a lot. Let's get in touch.
