    Has anyone upgraded his or her rear 348 wheel rim width? I am curious as to how much clearance there is in the rear hub for wheel rim width increase?

    The stock wheels are 9”, and I want more meat in the rear of my 348 ts!!!

    Thanks!

    I added spacers from Paul hill. They are high quality and fit nicely.
    I also upgraded to 355 wheels.

    Do you have any pictures to share since I'm considering changing my stock rims for either 355 ones or bigger 19"?

    Challange speedlines with 25mm spacers fill the hole nicely

    The 355C wheel has more offset than the 348C wheel. With the 355C wheels I run 305 660 18 pirelli slicks with car as low as it will go. I have no rubbing but you can't get your middle finger between the body and the tire.
