I think choice 1 will be good for coupe!!
Choice 3 look not safe

Now, front spacer thickness is 10mm, rear is 15mm

What is the size of your front spacers?

I would say it is the spacers + lowered springs + 0.5 inch all that contributes towards the problem, if there are only 2 items out of the 3, you would still be ok, but 3 out of 3 then you are f*#ked!

Stock tire diameter is: 24.1 inch
215/45R17 tire diameter is: 24.6 inch
215/40R17 tire diameter is: 23.8 inch
Obviously, 215/40R17 is closer to stock tire diameter.

But, does the 0.5inch difference between stock tire and my selected 45R17 tire contribute to the tire scratch?  Or, because of the spacer that makes the tires closer to the tire arch?

Adding a new bump stop or 彈弓墊 is a good & cheap alternative.

唉！ 諗住 45會舒服Ｄ，點知道.......

古惑強

What size of spacer did you use for front & rear?
For the long bolts, you can saw or grind off the extra length, may be you can ask Jason / 陳水胃 for help.

Usage of 215/45R17 on the coupe with lowered suspension is indeed an issue, 215/40R17 would be a better choice but it would be quite bouncy.
Jason has 12mm spacer for the front, are you using the same spacer in the front?

咁真係唔開心喎.

Oh..so it is the screws???/

換咗呔...... 前 RE-11， 後 RS Sport.
不過出咗事！ 用咗215/45R17 原來會勁刮沙板同埋輪拱內的軟膠。
又原來螺絲太長....
結果前面用番原裝螺絲： 加咗spacer後比原本短咗2mm
後面用厚spacer加27mm螺絲
家陣係咁o夷都刮沙板，冇得皮添....

唔一樣，佢係Ultra Leggera...
RE-11 要$16xx/條， RS Sport $1100/條， Z1* $1150/條

AbarthJoe

咁咪同樓上一模一樣？

OZ Super Leggera

R17? 你換左鈴啦？ 有咩好介紹呀？

coupeelvin

Any idea about the price of RE-11 215/45R17?
Thinking of RE-11 at the front, this RS sport at rear....
