Slips 15x7.5 +40 with 225/45/15 tires on EG Civic

I just bought a set of the 15x7.5 rotas - on their way Haven't made the decision on tires yet. Going either Toyo RA1, Nitto NtO1s and mybe those leftover kook Z211s.. .

This is basically a question for the moderators and people who have been running Road Course Tracks who are fitting 225 R compounds. I didn't feel like posting this in the RR/autoX forum.

In the rear, I know I will have to do some rolling, but am I going to have to go with some extreme camber to clear the fender lip? Extreme as in over 3 deg?


The real reason I want to run 225s all around is for tire wear and I do AutoX, 205s just aren't enough for my K20, especially since I have no LSD. I think I would be fine with 205s on the RR courses though. Atleast at my level of experience.

what is the question? if you can fit them? they will fit and not rub much as long as you're not too low. (you cant be because of the k anyways) I think you'll be fine

To clarify

? is if I have to run extreme camber with 225s to even get away from a ROLLED fender in the rear.. ..???

I know the front should be fine.
