yes it's been done to death
off the top of my head I believe you run 50mm offset ones all around
with small spacers 1/4" or 3/8" in the front

if you need a pair of I have some chrome Zr's 17x11's with new Summitomos
on them that I could sell you. I even have the spacers and extended arp studs too.

You have more room up front... except of course for the spindle.

But 17x11 50mm would fit. I think 45mm would probably work a little better.

If you are wanting to road race... please get something other than heavy replica wheels. Unpsrung weight is your enemy.

315/35/17 People run this set up a lot. I would definitely get something other than replicas too if you're gonna be racing this thing. Gonna cost some money though
