Looks like the biggest tire I can fit will be a 275/50/15 unless I lift the back of the car some and let them hang out, which I'd rather not do. I think that 275 should do alright though.
Talked to Diamond Racing Wheels today, they're going to make a set of wheels in the proper offset to fit these.
Still working through tire choice... these three are available in 275/50/15
Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial -- I'm afraid these are a hair too tall -- 26.2". I'd have to raise the rear a bit to fit these to keep them from scraping the fender arches if I hit a bump...
Nitto NT555R - 25.71" tall
Hoosier R6 - 25.7" tall
Either of those should fit I think, might be close, if I have to lift the rear it won't be much.
Thoughts on these Nittos and Hoosiers?
I called Nitto, his corporate response was not to use them over 1/2mile. I asked for his personal thoughts and he said I'd be fine. Haven't talked to Hoosier yet, but I expect they'd say similar.
