If you are searching for Mazda RX-7 wheel fitment, Volk Racing CE28 on a Mazda RX-7, 17x8 +38 wheels on a RX-7, or what tire size goes with that setup, this build is a real-world answer, photographed and measured by the owner.

Volk Racing CE28 17x8 +38 specs (staggered)

The wheels are 17-inch in diameter and 8 inches wide with a +38 offset up front, and 17-inch by 9.5 inches at +42 in the rear, in the 5x100 bolt pattern the Mazda RX-7 uses.

A +38 offset on a 8-inch wide wheel puts the wheel face in a mild push toward the fender. Lower offset moves the wheel outward; higher offset tucks it in. The rear +42 offset on the 9.5-inch wheel keeps the rear in line with the front.

235/40R17 / 275/40R17 tires on 17x8 wheels

The tire size is 235/40R17 front and 275/40R17 rear: a 235 mm section width with a 40 aspect ratio on the 17-inch wheel, which gives a meaty fit (the tire is wider than the wheel, so the sidewall bulges a little and gives more cushion).

The owner chose Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S. We stock Yokohama YOK Advan Fleva 235/40R17 at $210 each in this size, and other 235/40R17 tires through the 235/40R17 tire search.

Suspension, stance and clearance

The car is lowered on coilovers, which lets the owner dial in ride height and camber to clear 17x8 +38 and get the flush look.

No rubbing at all, front or rear, no spacers, no fender work. That means the setup fits as-is, which is what most owners want to know before they buy.

Stance: flush. The wheel face lines up with the fender. Flush fitment on a Mazda RX-7 comes down to the offset and width above; copy them and you get the same result.
