10.5" track wheels
you would need a 25mm spacer(maybe a 30mm but it would be tight). any more than that and the wheel will stick out and look stupid.
anyway, the 25mm spacer would push the wheel out 1inch (25mm = 1inch).
so now the widened wheel is only 1" closer to the suspension than stock.
i would have to check, but i think there is enough room to do this

It would have made more sense to extend the wheel from the face lip outward, but I guess that would have cost a ton of money to be done with good quality.
So if the offset was not corrected then the only option I see is to run a 2"+ wheel spacer. I mean seriously, somebody please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm not running spacers. I ran the setup all weekend hard and nothing rubed at all. I went through places that caused the car to articulate so bad that the car scraped and nothing is rubbing. I'm going right now to take pics.

Clearing the rotors is no problem because of the spoke design and wheel mounting surface. But I am surprised that you can get 2 more inches under the car. Pretty cool.

Finally someone with the courage to stick their neck out on a old I dea for a new application! I am proud of you.
I would go for some 25mm spacers, and a lowered spring just for looks.
Looks GREAT!

You took the words right out of my mouth.
That G looks like he's got too much rubber on there. The tire sticks out way past the rim. Me no like.
