My Saff with 17x7.5j and 215/40/17 Federal RSR trackday/road legal tyres.

Rolled arches front and rear needed to give enough clearance.
That's seems to be true! I was thinking about the Rota D154 wich only comes in 8J for 17". But like you said, it's hard to find 225 tyres. It's 215 (too small) or 235 ( too big)
Are there any alternatives to the Rota D154 wheels?
