Attempt #3

Wheels: Breyton GTS-R
Front: 18x8.5 et48
Spacer: 5mm

Rear: 18x8.5 et48
Spacer: none

Tires:
Front: Dunlop Direzza Sport Z-1 Star Spec 245x40-18
Rear Dunlop Direzza Sport Z-1 Star Spec 265x35-18

Suspension/Fender Mods/Camber:
We have minor 'rubbage' at all four corners even with stock suspension. Stock but will require moderate fender rolling front and rear with possible camber plates in front for extra negative camber. There is just enough front inside clearance to the strut.

Notes:
Different brand tires may not be as much of an issue as the Zed 1s are noticably wider than most other brands in the same size. The 245x40 fronts are too tall, I should have gone with 225x40 and 245x40 in this tire with this fitment. Or better yet, since the Star Specs are not available in this size, another brand tire in 245x35-18 all around for proper rotation.
