R53 Konig Hypergram

Hi guys! I’ve been using the search feature to try to get more info on whether or not these rims will fit my car. And well, I think I’m cross-eyed now. Hehe.

What I’m trying to find out is if a Konig Hypergram 17x8 et 45 will fit my R53 with 215/45/17 tires and 3mm spacers all around.

I have Swift Spec-R springs on Koni yellows.

I’ve seen only a couple pictures of this rim on a R53. One guy had 225s on them but ran 10mm spacers up front and 5mm in the back. But I’m looking to use 215s. The other picture didn’t list a tire size and erroneously listed the et as 42.

I forgot to mention what tire I was looking to use. I wanted to try Toyo R888Rs.

Alternatively, I could stick with Konig Backbones. Those would be 17x7.5 et 45 but about 2 pounds heavier and not flow formed.
