Hey guys just wanted to see what size wheel/tire combo would clear a lowered rear suspension.....im looking into getting a 15x7.5 zero offset wheel, but will want the rear end to be lowered somewhat so i just wanted to know if anyone had this size or what the maximum size would be to clear the rear fender on a lowered roadster. Thanks

typically in a 15" a 6" will clear but you have to run 15 degree offest, 0" from a z car will not work. You can usually run between a 11 to 15mm offset depending on the rim, and a 195/50 or 205 50 depending on the year of your car.
