Yep, with 245/35 Falken FK451. I have a set of 17" silver Enkei RFP-1 on the way for track/autocross (17" RA-1 are soooo much cheaper!!)

I like the RPF-1, but didn't see anything with an offset greater than +40 in 17x8.5. I want to use 255-40-17, but need more offset to do it. What size/offset did you order?

Well I have an 04STI, so I can only use 17x8.0 -> and I can squish a 245 or 255 on those, but once you get to RA-1 with a nicely setup coilover and some 3deg of camber, a 235 runs so much grip, I challenge anyone to run the car hard enough to need a larger tire : - )

I'm not sure what offset you would need to run a 255 tire on an 05....
