Widest 15" wheel and tire combo(yes fronts also)

(1/1)

NBF823:
Whats the widest 15" wheel and tire combo I can shove under this car?

Is 15x9 265/50R15 front, and 15×10 295/50R15 rear possible?

I know that those will fit in the rear on 8"wide 4" backspacing.

So 15x9 4.5 bs front, 15x10 5" bs rear?

And has anybody tried a 15" American racing 200s with 11.75 C3 rotors and Afco F88 4 pistons? Im using C5 conversion knuckles and K6024 truck upper balls.

I know guys pushed the limits of 15" wheel and tire combos back in the day, I'm just seeing if anyone still know what fits.

Thanks.

Will need to pack out the steering stops or will scrub on sway bar and possibly inner fender of both depending on height and suspension.

Thanks.

I'll have to fit up the sway bar. I built cribbage which i need to utilize to fit everything.
The inner fenders are not currently in the car as I planned to make them from glass or cf.

I know a 295/50 will turn lock to lock with no fenders on an 8" rim - i was just checking the roll cage clearance there.

I dont mind modding the lower A,sway, or inner fenders, I just dont want to alter the exterior skin short of some fender rolling.

Not a problem but I prefer more BS on both.

Best to measure but 5-5.5” range I have found works best.
