Was able to get a 17x11 wheel with a 315/35/17 tire to fit pretty nicely in the rear, unsure on offset for now until I measure it out but I believe it's around 58. I also have the hub conversion but an 8ish mm spacer was needed so all added up I'm going to say et60. I plan on getting wider lips after doing a 1m conversion and possibly fit a 335? I'll keep updating this post.

Yup! He's run a lot of awesome setups. I've messaged him on IG before, lol.
There's space between the shock but on these cars the body of the car sticks out on the inner wheel well, it hits that before it hits the shock
Is this your first car that makes over 500 hp? You can go wider all you want but you need more sidewall and a taller tire if you want traction in a straight line.
People are running 6 second quarter miles on 275s but I'm sure you've got it all figured out
I know man lol I'm not disagreeing. A 255/60 would probably hook better than a 345/30 because of the sidewall like you're saying.
For these cars though a 17 with suspension upgrades will do just fine for traction for the average power level. When I end up turning it up pass 700 again I'll probably need some 15s for a dig.
Switched to 17x12 rears with lower offset, bigger lip more concave face looks amazing. Need to narrow the fronts down but it's ready for 1m panels.
