My question is how wide of a wheel would fit on an EG hatchy? I plan to buy 16" x 8" slipstreams. Would they fit without any rub? Any pix?

 

it depends on the offset, they will most likely rub and 16" is to big for an EG in my opinion

 

well in that case it would be best to go with some 15 x 7s then huh. What's the widest tire I could fit on that wheel?

 

again depends on offset. i have a 15x7 track wheels in a +40mm and no issues, but my daily wheels are a 15x6.5" in a +35mm offset and i rubbed in the rear.

 

I dunno about the 8" but my 16x7's have no problem (205-40-R16 tires)

Depends on offset, these came w/ hub centric rings, not sure if it makes a difference...
edit: fixed error, came with the rings not spacers, my bad.
