MkIII Wheel Spacers?

[Knestis]

Anyone tried fitting 9" section-width tires (Toyo 225s/50s) and 6" wheels on a MkIII yet? How much spacer can/must you put in there?

Isn't a Toyo 225/50/14 the same size as a Hoosier 205/55/14?? or at least VERY close?

I don't know but wouldn't be surprised if that were the case. I can find out if it's helpful but what does that mean for this chassis - any ideas?

Kirk,

I can't speak for the A3 chassis, but I was able to run the 205/55/14 Hoosiers w/o any spacers on a 14x6 et38 rim on an A1. Talk to Bill Suloff, he probably has the answer. He also has some really 3/4" T6061 spacers available.

Kirk,

Are you looking at this for IT? Stock tire size is listed as 195/60, and I thought you were only allowd a +10 or +20 increase in SS?
