I can barely fit 16x7 fuchs with 225 in the front with rolled fender.
The thing with the 18x8's is they are custom offset so they're built to sit further in the wheelwhell than the 16x7's.

Vampire,
I agree F is a really great class to drive in. the competition is always fierce and at some of the smaller races it can compromise of half of the field. I have both and E 964 and a F 78 sc prepared from G. On the east side of the country E is a large class and if I am not mistaken was even larger than F at Sebring. I am running F at Road America this weekend but E class looks really challenging as well. It is also interesting how in some parts of the country people think the fast F cars are water cooled front engine and in my part of the country euro sc's and prepared cars from G rule.

Weight for prepared cars remains the same as their stock class weight. Why run a non-Euro SC in F when there is always cars to race in G? They are not lighter than Euros and do not have as much power as anything else in F.

Not planning on it, just curious about Cory's comment regarding prepared G cars being out front in some regions. My guess is that you could tune a US SC to get close to Euro HP and still be legal and with the addition of larger tires, better brakes and better gearing that you could have a pretty competitive car even against a Euro SC. From what I've seen with the top prepped G cars in the NE, their power levels are close to whatever an S2 or Carrera has to offer.
