What's the widest rim that anyone has fit on a colt and been able to tuck the tires under the fenders? I'll roll the fenders like hell if I have to but I don't want to do flares. I"m not worried about max tire width as I'm going road racing so there is no point on shoving a huge tire on too narrow a rim as it doesn't perform any better. Any hope of 8"? wider? narrower? |

If your planning on competing, the widest most classes will let you run is 7" and that is pretty wide on a CSM. You may get an 15x8 put its gonna be close if you lower the car more than an inch. |

If I compete I'm looking at ITE anyway. Car isn't classed in ITA, ITB, ITC or ITS...  For AutoX i'll be street mod it sounds like. Car will definitely be lowered a good amount. I can fit some wilwoods under 15x7s so that may be my size of choice although it sure would be nice be able to go to 8.5". |

I know ITE is a free for all class of sorts, but you'll still have to conform to the IT specs which will be 15x7" max. |

I don't think that's true, at least in the rocky mountain region? My friend's 3si just got teched for ITE and is running 18x9s? If ITE is a free for all, then what rules do you have to follow and what can you break ya know?

anyone know if a +42 offset you could only put on, can you go any lower say with a 15inch rim with a +15 offset?

I'll be playing with this more. I'm going to get some 15x7s but I want to get the offset right so that they are as close to the coilover (which i don't have yet) as possible and then I can tuck some 225 race rubber under a rolled fender with the car lowered....I hope |

They will say on the wheel usually. It will be in the +35 to +40 range probably. How much space do you have to the strut and how far do they stickout past the fender?
