    17x9 Need some help please..

    I run those TR Motorsport wheels with 255/40 tires. I clear with a 5mm spacer on H&R coilovers. If you're running coilovers such as BC's/Stances or similar to them, you will need at least a 15mm spacer for sure. Then you'll clear the perches of the coilovers by a good 3mm.

    Will this fit? 18 x 18.5 +40 with 245/40/18

    To make 18x8.5 +40 with 245/40 tires not rub, you'll want to roll your rear fenders and grind down the inside of where the rear quarter panel and rear bumper meet. That's what I did, and I don't rub. I'm also on H&R coilovers with about 1/2" wheel gap. I don't rub with passengers in the rear...

    Mazdaspeed Ms3 springs

    The aftermarket Mazdaspeed springs for the MS3 lower the car a good .5" and make the ride a bit firmer. As for your 7 year warranty, the springs will shorten the life of your shocks regardless. So I really wouldn't worry about warranty if you get aftermarket springs.

    Will it fit?

    You'll be fine then. I was just letting you know. LOL. What are you on, Koni Yellow's and stock or aftermarket springs?

    Will it fit?

    Then you're going to have to roll the rear fenders and see if you rub. With a 1" drop, you should be fine. People running 17x9 +45 with 255/40 tires that I've seen are usually about a finger gap all around and rub a little under hard compression. I'm running 18x8.5 +45 with 245/40 tires and...

    Will it fit?

    It'll fit, just make sure those rear fenders are rolled/pulled. 17x9 +45 will fit, maybe a 5mm spacer upfront needed.

    Not happy with FSD's, what should I try next? Koni Yellow, Bilstein or BC?

    AWR Bilsteins. I had them on with stock springs and Cobb springs. They rode great.

    So what do you guys think? Blown?

    That's what happens when Mazda puts stiffer spring rates on the MS3, but uses MZ3 shocks. As for the MSP, they at least had revalved Tokico HP's for the Racing Beat springs.

    17" vs 18" RPF1s

    Roll the rear fenders for 17x9 +45 with 235/40 tires? Damn, you must be really low if you rub.

    Softer suspension?

    How much softer do you want to go? If you want soft, you might as well go back to the stock springs and get like Koni FSD's. You can also get H&R coilovers since those to me those are the best DD coilovers, just don't go low on them since that'll make the ride harsher. You can also get Koni...
