Looking into the widest slick that fits under E.D ..
I've previously run 28 X 9 X 15... Fitting taller springs to fit is an option if we have to...

Yes we want to know what fits as we are going to larger tyre..
The rims we have at present are 8" ... Going to 10" will require some fine selection... The back spacing on these rims are 4" so I guess whatever the extra width is going to be backspacing ?? As the tyres are awafull close to outer guards now... I don't want to purchase slicks to latter find out they don't fit.. My Dad's 10.5 Pro stars from Celica just don't fit.. What a shame !! Lol.....

Is this going under the turbo 330? A 28 x 9 will run really fast in a well setup car. Just look what the US guys do on a 275 drag radial!
