uh... i wouldnt recommend the rota's on anything that is NOT a honda. the have been known to bend fairly easily. i CERTAINLY wouldnt run them on a 3800lb car either!

R U sure you have the right info on Rota's???!:icon_surp Many Suby WRX/STi guys run alot of the newer series (Volk and Work lookalikes:icon_razz) and I haven't heard any of them complain. My son used to have Rota's on his Rex, and never had any problems with them. STi's come in at roughly 3300lbs, so I'm thinking another 400 wouldn't be a problem(?)

my car will tuck the 315's in the rear with slight fender rolling. no widening/pulling necessary.

the fronts WOULD need pulling to clear the 295's up front.

but for the record, i HAVE cleared 19x10's +50 with 265/30's up front on a lowered supra. the 19x11's with 305/25's with +50 rubbed the strut body but would clear the body with fender lip rolling.

if i could get my rear strut out of the way, i could fit 345's in the back with say, a 12" or 13" rim, about +60mm offset, a little more negative camber and fender lip rolling; No wide body fender. this tire/wheel thing is starting to become an obsession...

running the same wheel
rota p45f - front - 18x8.5 - 245/40/r18 +25
rota p45r - rear - 18x9.5 - 275/35/r18 +30
no rubbing left/right, minor rubbing over large transitions. This setup is very straight with the side of the car and the tires match the wheel almost perfectly.

sorry I know it's off topic but it has to do with wheels,and our cars.

whats the lug paturn on our cars?

5x114.3
Not off topic at all... you don't know the lug pattern, you don't get wheels that fit.

5x114.3 MY bad. I hate giving out wrong info.

No way in hell that will fit with in the fender.

Why not? There is a blue car in this thread running an 18x10 with a decent sized tire on it. His car is lowered but the tire is not tucked into the fender. Unless we know the expected ride height, its hard to say for certain if you will get away with it.

I guess you can get away with it. A LOT of neg camber will be needed. only reason I said that it wont fit because he said a 285 size tire. That is really big.
