I hope the experts on here can help me, I am looking for lightweight wheels for 245/35-17 tyres...

Was thinking about size 8,5 or 9 ??

As these will be for track days, I am interested in performance, not looks...

Thanks for your help,
Jochen

I'm not a expert , but had t/d on my coop.
team dinamics pro race 2 , light , straight fit load of clerance for big brakes, and not that expensive !
Give them a buzz.

I think 245 may be too wide for the coupe. You might rub with that tyre width

Johns was using 245/35/18 and that even bigger.
Mine were 235/40/17 on 8 inch wide rims , no issues.
