I’d like to get a set of the EC-7s for my 21 GT PP. If I wanted to get slightly wider tires than stock, could I do this without spacers?

you can do 285/35 on a 10” wheel

The 18x10" or 19x10" ET40 would be an ideal square rotatable setup that allows you to run up to 285 wide tires on the stock suspension.

I'm looking at going to a square set up for Autocross. I'm adding Pedders Coilovers and will be running in CAM. I'm looking at the EC7s in either 18x11 or 19x11 so I could go with 315s. I know the fitment page lists Pedders as reducing clearance though. Would 18x11 still fit or should I go with the 19x11s?

Do you guys have any pictures of s550’s with a 19x10 square setup of sm-10 or ec7. I’m having a hard time finding how the rear wheel will fill up the wheel well.

Looks like a few people have posted their setups with the same wheel specs you're looking for. The 19x10" ET40 sits flush in the rear with a 285 tire and factory camber.

I'm looking at going to a square set up for Autocross. I'm adding Pedders Coilovers and will be running in CAM. I'm looking at the EC7s in either 18x11 or 19x11 so I could go with 315s. I know the fitment page lists Pedders as reducing clearance though. Would 18x11 still fit or should I go with the 19x11s?
Both 18x11 and 19x11" will have fitment issues with the Pedders. The best way around it is to either run a 28mm spacer (maybe more) up front, or use a 25mm spacer along with camber bolts to reduce negative camber at the spindle, which moves the assembly away from the strut a bit. Then dial in the negative camber up top via plates.

Here’s some pictures from my recent trip to the Netherlands, and from my most recent trackday at anneau du rhin in France

yes, I took on a 2000+ mile roadtrip on my track wheels lol

specs are 19”x10“ EC-7 with a 1cm spacer in front and 5mm spacer in back.
Tires are 285 RE-71R’s. Doing amazing work on track.

Car looks great. Is it lowered? Also how was the ride trip on these wheels any difference in comparison to stock setup in terms of ride quality? I don’t track my car it’s just a daily, but I like the look of this setup!

thanks man! I just have some Steeda progressive lowering springs on it, other than that it’s just the stock performance pack dampers. It’s a great setup that handles surprisingly well even on track.

I always drive with my track wheels so I don’t really remember what stock was like haha. But they’re a big upgrade just in terms of weight savings which you’re definitely gonna notice.

Here's a nice S550 track car from one of our authorized dealers WheelsCo out of Canada. Great looking square setup with some meaty tires.

Square Setup:
- APEX 18x10" ET43 EC-7 wheels in satin black
- 295/40-18 Hankook RS4 Tires

Sorry for digging up old post, but does this mean that I can run a square 295 on the newer 18x10" ET40 without any clearance issue both front and rear?
Do you know if this owner is on factory studs as well?
I have Brembo Brake, BC Coilover, and factory studs.

Thanks!
