Default Auto-x and daily driver setup

Hi, i have a boosted DB8 running on 16x7 now and lowered about 1.5". was wondering if 15x8 or 16x8 would fit, and if so, what combination of spacers and offset would i need? would 15's be better or 16's on the track with a boosted car? btw, boosting 14psi. I was planning to get the rota slipstreams, but not sure. Please help. thanks.

Are you planning to use the same tires for autocross as on the street? If so, you can get the Azenis in either 205/50-15 or 215/45-16. I wouldn't go wider than 7 inch widths on the wheels, though. If you're not planning to use the same tires for both, a lot more track tires are available in 15" sizes than 16" sizes.

It shouldn't, unless your car is really slammed.
