the 245/50/16 Z rated
what width rim would i need?
would that fit my car in the front? or would i need spacers. just wondering if anyone has done this.

try a 16x8 rim with a 38mm offset. That's what one of my friend had on his 1G. The tires would stick out about half an inch out of the fender but it looked mean as hell.

it will just be for racing, but thanks for the info

I have stock RX-7 rims on my car with about A 3/16 - 1/4 spacer and 245's on A 16 inch rim.
