I doubt they will clear the Brembo calipers. The factory wheels are far nicer IMO.

The stock tire is a "40" series tire... what we were asking is why would you go to a taller "45" series tire???

Those are drag radials he bought so maybe he wanted them taller for good traction lol

LOL. Did nobody notice that the wheels are 17's? 245/45/17's will have 25.7" diameter. 245/40/17's would be 24.7", so they would be a bit small.

You may need spacers, which isn't a big deal if you are only using them at the track.
