Trying to determine wheel fitment on a GT for best clearance
Currently running 9 x 16 Fuchs with Hoosier R7 245 x 45…..have some rubbing but mainly cleared it but very close on the inside. Was fine with R6 but 7 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
If We switch to 8 x 16 would it increase clearance.

That is not a chart for the body, it’s for the wheel, Fuchs specifically. Measure distance from hub to inside fender, compare to chart by subtracting backspace from wheel width and that’ll give you an idea of how wide of Fuchs you can run.

There is much more to it, but it’s a starting point.
