Obviously you meant 16x8, are you running any spacers with that? Also are you running a stock suspension? It doesn’t seem like it but wanted to know for sure.

I’m looking into getting those wheels with either the Hoosier QTP 26x9.5 or the Hoosier 255/50 16

I guess I will hop in on this. 15" slips with 26" Hoosiers. My fronts clear everything but the rear needs spacers.

What’s the problem with the rear? Why does it require spacers?
What size tire are you running?

...because the tire won't clear the rear knuckle. This is what the backspacing looks like with my DR's on and no spacer, the tire doesn't clear once I drop it on the ground.

Exactly what they said, the tire rubs the knuckle. Especially since my car is a 2gb however, when I did my awd swap I swapped it with a 2ga rear end. The 2gb knuckle actually has about 2mm(?) or so of extra room for a wider tire.

15inch M&H slicks

Anyone have experience with the 2g GST 5 spoke rims with 26" tires for clearance? I have an extra set of GST rims and was thinking about putting the 26" Hoosier QTP's on them. I am going with the 26" because it's an auto.

Can you post more pictures of your setup please? Does your wheels stick out of the fenders at all?

I'm sorry if it was already posted, but what size spacer did you use for the rear? Thanks

I have a 9mm spacer in the rear to clear the hoosiers.
