race wheels width and offsets
is it good to run same width, offset and size on all four corners
eg. 17 x 9 or 9.5 same offsets all round?
or is it better to stay stager like 17x8 front and 17 x 9 rear?
i have a set of OEM Skyline R33 17x9 rims but they are not with me and i'm not sure if they will fit over my track brembos....what kind of offset do i need?

Good to see another Canuc interested in tracking their Zed.
As a reference, I'll be getting a set of 17x9 with 30 offset (or within 2-3 mm of that) race wheels all round, and 275/40/17 tires for next year's Solo2 season.

how's that 1" spacer working on your JIC lowered ride?? i have JIC too and was thinking of getting spacers for my stock track wheels but will they work with the 17x9 +30 rims/tires without rubbing the fenders??
i can't take off the spacers and long studs to fit the race 17" wheels everytime....

I've attached a pic of my AutoX this past Sunday at the Corel Centre. As you can see, the spacers work well even with the drop - but I wouldn't go wider.
When I run the 17x9s I'll definitely be unbolting the spacer off the hub (spacer doesn't use longer studs, it has it's own built-in offsetting studs which the OEM rim bolts onto). While I'm doing it, I might slide on a 5mm spacer onto the OEM studs before mounting the AutoX wheels.
