16x8 et25?

[=======Live Fast!]

Curious if we can run a et25 offset on a square setup without any issues.

That might be too close to the strut. You may need a small 5mm space to clear

Tha Apex ARC 8 flat face 17" wheel is et 25, I run that square with 235/40 tires. Fenders rolled and liners pulled, the rubber not the wheel does rub a bit on the fender on track days.

Not sure if this helps but I ran 16x7.5 et20 with no issues, can't remember if the tire was 215 or 225 or how close it was to the strut. Car was lowered slightly, no rubbing.

Should fit fine. 19x9 ET15 is danger close and sometimes needs a spacer, but those should clear by like 3mm more.

I run a 215/45 on a 16x8 et13 with no rubbing. 16x8 is pretty much perfect, you could probably get away with a 225/45.

So I ended up buying a 16x8 et20. It hits the calipers. They're going back.

that also has a lot to do with spoke design. Unless you have a low clearance BBK, a small front spacer for caliper clearance is usually required

I'm bummed. I don't want to run a spacer at all. If anyone has suggestions besides a Beyern mesh for a deep dish wheel, let me know.
