Bro, you are making the rest of us look pretty lame. Your engine mods, and now your wheels and tires. What a gorgeous set of wheels and car you have. Great job.

Thanks for the positive comments. NO rubber issues at all with the 8.5 width. There is about a 1/2" of clearance on the inside between the tire & the HFP strut. Really can't go wrong with the HFP suspension. The HFP brakes are made for the '06 & up Si.

45mm offset. The 45 offset splits the extra inch in half, half inch more on the outside and a half inch closer to the strut on the inside. Seems to be just about perfect for this car.

Rays Gram Lights 57 Maximum, 18X8.5, 45mm offset, Gun Blue in color, 21lbs (the 7.5" width is only 8 ounces lighter.) 225/40 BF Goodrich G-Force TA KDW rubber. $2,235.00 delivered. I am really liking the added stability of the extra 1" of wheel width. There is a very noticeable difference in cornering and high speed stability. These are still lighter than the 18" HFP wheels by around 2-3 lbs.
