Not a terrible thing imo, the 215/40/16 felt a little short anyways. Does the 205 45 seem like a good move?

Anyway, now there's ~5mm clearance between the tire sidewall and the strut. I don't think a 5mm spacer would have done it. Fender clearance not a problem, but I have HR/OE sport springs which are taller than what most guys are running.
15x8 +22 used to be a common size for E30 track wheels, as well as +20 today. You have lots of clearance.

I have a set of borbet type h 15x7 et25mm
Just trying to figure out what size hub rings I need.. I know the measurements go from a 64mm cb to a 57.1mm hub but I wanted to figure where I should buy the rings (heard don't go through tire rack or discount tire direct) and if spacers would be needed. Still a bit of a noob when it comes to wheel fitmentsigpic"God made cars to be RWD and standard"

Goal: Not to roll my fenders
Car: 85 eta
Suspension: HR Race and Billy Sports
Desired wheel size: 17"
Question: How wide of wheels can I fit without fender modification? I've seen people stuff 17x8 front and 17x9 rear. I am going for square setup, so maybe 17x8 front and rear? Then leads the question, recommended tire size? And which offset of wheel should i shoot for?
Thanks ahead of time Jay!
