I dare say that it would be in your owners manual.

[57UDD]

probably, but i'm no where near my CTR, its in Brisbane and i'm in Vietnam.

After some time, i've found out from home that the wheel size is 18 x 7 1/2J, just need the offset.

It's printed on the inside of the rim. You have to get someone to take the wheel off and check it out.

How much are these going for anyway?

Does anyone know what the minimum load rating of tyres we can use for FN2 is? I'm thinking about using my Enkei wrc tarmac evo 17 inch rims on the FN2 but not sure how it would look and also not sure about the minimum tyre load rating :P Are there any fellow FN2 owners who have considered 17 inch? I know it's a downgrade from the 18 inch stockies..haha..but maybe the lighter weight rims would be of benefit?

It's printed on the tyre pressure sticker on the door frame (or in the fuel lid). Alternatively, you can look at your stock tyres and always use something higher than those.

Im running 17" SSR Type-C for my R-comps
they do the job allright.
17" tires are much lighter than 18" tires
the difference in rim weight is not that much

lol cool :) Think i'll get the same tyres as u then for my enkeis 17" enkeis..lol..just noticed the black fn2 has the front lip spoiler..damn..it looks much more aggressive!! Wish I asked for that option too.. stupid.. didn't get any options apart from floor mats which the dealer charged $250 extra for :( Lesson learnt..never bring your mum with you when buying a new car...or any other relative who is female for that matter :P LOL..so easily persuaded by the sneaky dealers

What would happen if i get rims with different offset to that of my original ones? Would it damage the car in any way?

[Reothe]

As long as it clears the calipers and guards it should be ok.. it's almost impossible to find aftermarket rims with near stock offsets.

[lukits01]

stock offset is very conservative
they sit quite far inside the guards

Im trying to fit even wider rims and tires at the moment
trying a staggered setup with SSR GT7
235/45/17 on 17*8.5 ET40 front (lowered 25mm)
215/45/17 on 17*8 ET45 rear (lowered 20mm)
no rubbing so far on the street, will be trying it on track soon

[Reothe]

lol, progressive setup always looks mad :) But I was told it's illegal (at least in Victoria) to have wider tyres at the front. It's ok to have wider at the rear but not the front from what I've been told (even though our cars are front wheel drive).
