No lah... sorry for the confusion, the recommendation is 8.5" in front and 9.5" rear, but I'm probably going 8.5" all around. So still sticking to my original model... not the GC-010s.

Real live experiment.

I just put some Wedsports in at 8.5" +32. Extra 24mm extension to the outside from stock. It does seems to be very close to the rear fender. I lowered my car and I think it is rubbing - although it is just a knocking noise and seems to be on the right side. So far so good - no rubbing noise on the front.

That is correct.

The slicks are heavier in thread steel than the casted wheel nowadays.

Unless you go F1 tyres
