Max Wheel Offset for a Spider
I have decided that it's time to buy a set of deducated track wheels for my Spider. For the last year I have been using my Kumho Ecsta700 for the street and track events.
I found some wheels that were made for the Ford Escort they have the correct bolt pattern but their offset is 35 mm. I will be running the Kumho's that are 205/50/15 on them will that offset work?
If I buy these wheels I will need to buy a set of street tires to replace the Kumho's that I used for the street. Can I go to a wider tire in the rear? I would go with the 205/55/15 on the front and 215/55/15 in the rear? I have 15 x 7 Panasports. I have heard if you don't have ABS brakes you can go to wider tires in the rear. I will have to check but I don't think a S-4 Spider has ABS Brakes if they do I never felt them?
Any help would be great.
