Hey guys, I'm in the market to buy new rims for my S13 Silvia Coupe.

I was running 17x8 +12 Buddy Club P1s all around, 3* Negative Camber Front, 2.5* Negative Camber Rear (8 degree castor on front)
5mm spacer on the front, 15mm rear ( have a decent flare on the rear )

I have standard guards on the front and do a lot of full lock drifting with tein extra-lock tie rods. I run Tein coilvers (HE Front | HR Rear) which are on the bottom threads (dumped) Only change I will be making is 3.5* degree negative camber on the front and about 1.5* negative on the rear, but doesn't matter for rear because wheels will definately fit.

I want to make sure I don't have any clearance issues on the front, and that running a 215 or 225/40/17 profile tire on the front I won't scrub on full lock.

I'm looking at 17x9 +15 CR KAI front and rear or
17x9.5 +15 CST Hyper Zeros (MB BATTLES) front and rear
I'd really prefer a 9.5 rear so I'm thinking I'll have to go CR Kai 17x9 +15 front and CST Hyper Zero 17x9.5 Rear, which will attract cop attention and I think the Hyper Zero's look better..

I'm keen to hear from people with experience/photos of this fitment (use with or without spacers)
