hi gav

i wouldn't be to worried about the with of your rims i would be more worried what tryes you are going to put on them

you know my rl7 are et25 and are 8" when i put the R888's on the rims i had to rasie the backend up by about 20mm simpley because they are alot wider than normal road tyres .....the 235/40 17 R888 is more like a 255/40-17 belive it or not and the top of the tyre over hangs over the rim if that makes sense

i know your going for a fair bit of power but i would just get some road legal slicks of some kind even if you had 10" on the rear with normal road tyres your going no where wheel spin city you know i always tell you the best way to go about it
