Will these fit on an FC??
Will these spec rims fit on an FC?? With GC Coilovers w/camberkits.
5-lug (5X4½).
2-17x9 (+26mm offset with 6.11 backspace) for the front.
2-17x10.5 (+27mm offset with 6.9 backspace) for the rear.
If so, what would be the widest tires for the front and rear. Thanks.

they won't bump the inside but they'll stick out a ways, but if that doesn't bother you try them
I have 17 x 9.5 +38mm offest w/ 275 (REAR) and 17 x 9 + 35mm front w/ 235 (FRONT)
The 235's are tight up front, but the 9.5's fit great... I had tried a 17 x 10 and it fit too, but Enkie TX, only had that one 10" and I would had to wait months for another, so I opt for the 9.5....hope this helps

So these wheels would fit find, i just would need to get fender flares or a wide body??
Would 225s/45 up front be fine, with 275s/45 in the rear?
Would there be any inside rubbing??? Thanks.

Right, you should get a fender kit of some sort or you'll be rub'n on hard corners if those tyres are stickout past the stock fender. On a 10.5 x 17 you could run a 285 -315 if the fenders you choose will allow them.... That will look sweet!

Steve "SCCA Champ" Oblenes is a friend I know from LA which has a TII wide body...Do a search for his car, and use it for a reference point. It was built the right way. He's actually going to be running another car now 
....Time to move on as they say, but still a great reference point.
