Hi! I tried to browse the RC - 1st Gen Threads but I couldn't find any thread dedicated to aftermarket wheel fitment and tires for RC350. I even tried the "Search" function but it's so limited.

Please post your RC350:
-Wheel Brand
-Size Front, Offset
-Size Rear, Offset
-Tires for Front / Rear (Tire Width/Aspect Ratio)
-Lowered or not
-Any rubbing?

Example:
Niche Targa - M130
-20x8.5 Front, Offset idk
-20x10 Rear, Offset idk
-Tires (They didn't say)
-Not lowered yet, I guess
-Hopefully, it doesn't rub

>>>Oh yeah! What's the Factory Wheel/Tire Specs of RC350?

Nice! you do have bigger rear tires than mine plus lowering springs. lol! I'm glad it's not rubbing. I'm surprised you didn't go for flow-directional version of that wheel from other brands. I have one for you to try on.

By the way, you know the OEM wheel/tire spec of RC350?

Thanks! Btw, nice setup on your RC350. The rear offset is a lot more than oem of RCFs. I'm guessing the wheel design.

Sim

Thanks. I'm a newb at all this stuff. So I don't know much about offsets and all that jazz. Basically when it came to my wheels I contacted Work Wheels in Japan directly and asked for recommended specs. They came back with these and called it "conservative"

retail is a little over 1650 with the springs. but they are rotary forged wheels.

I am planning on purchasing new wheels/tires and most cars I see on this forum with custom wheels are RWD. I am wondering if I must keep the same size rims (width) on the front and rear since it's AWD ? I am considering staying with the factory 19 X 8.5 size but going with 255/35, which is listed as the optional size compared to 235/40. No mention of having to go with a different offset. Also considering going with 20's, but still would like to have wider than stock tires. Does anyone have experience with changing to different wheels on a AWD.

Nice ride, are those the TSW Bathurst ? Goes clean with the RC in Silver Lining, same one i got.

What size tires are you running ? It looks wider in the rear than stock.
