Small Request at Event 7 Daryl E and John W8

[mdb4879]

I have a small favor to ask of the both of you. I'm trying to decide whether to run a 245 or 275 Hoosier on my Civic next year. While there are many factors in my decision, one of them it tire clearance. I was hoping one or both of you would let me test fit one of each of your tires on the front of my car to see if I'll have adequate clearance or how much more clearancing I'll have to do? If there's any way I could try this at any point in the day it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

This won't be a problem as far as I'm concerned. I have 15x9's and Darryl has 15x10.

Thanks John, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I'm looking at either the Konig Dial-ins in 15x9 or the 15x10 6UL (if I can get them) for the front next year. Y'all's offsets may be different, but it should be close enough that I'll be able to figure out what spacers I may need to run and what clearance will be like. If Darryl will let me try his as well then I'll be in fat city.

[engled]

Sure. I know nothing of this offset you speak of but the back spacing on my wheels is 6 3/8 inches.

[mdb4879]

Thanks Darryl, I'll be sure to bring some spacers to test as well. The wheels I've been looking at have a 6" backspacing and I've heard I need spacers to run those, but I'm not sure since it was an EF guy I was talking to. So I'll try to bring plenty to test with.
