I got the car on jack stands all around and I fitted the 15x7 offset 40 Team dynamics with some hoosiers 225-45/15 mounted. They fit. Just.
In the rear, there is maybe 2-3 mm between the tire and the trailing arm, and maybe a little less between the tire and the shock spring. How much sidewall/tire deflection should I be expecting on track? I am leaning towards buying a set of 5mm spacers to give me a little margin, but that involves probably installing some extended wheel studs as well. <grumble, more work, grumble>
Input requested.

Thanks

Hmmm .....it seems a little birdie told you to buy 5mm wheel spacers. Longer wheel studs is a good idea anyway. They are not that difficult to install. Contact Alex @ Kingrat for them. He usually has them in stock.

 

yes, the little birdie suggested I get some 7mm spacers, actually! I already have the studs on order. I just need to get some spacers now. Thanks Phil.
