i'm looking at purchasing a separate set of wheels/tires for autocross and i'm worried about rubbing. anyone know if this setup will work?

Konig Foils (16x7; et40) with Azenis 615's 225/50R16

 

If it's on a Gen II, I personally think they'll fit just fine. I run Konig Tractions that are 16x7 et40 with 215/50-16s and there's plently of room. The 10mm difference between your choice and mine equates to .4 inches wider tire stance (or .2 inches on the inside and .2 on the outside), and I can tell you I have enough room inside and out for the extra width. But keep in mind, that's on a stock MCS suspension with no lowering...so there are some points to consider if your setup is different.

Poster #11 may help ya. He has an r53 and I am sure has used diff set up's.

BTW; did you bother to do a search before posting ? There are a few threads already on this stuff.

 

yep, sure did...couldn't find anything specific to the Foils though. there are a couple of other konig's that i could find evidence that they fit a mini, but nothing on the Foils.

 

Toyo PROXES R1R in 225/45-16 would be sweet.
