Default help with size please...

im completely newbie to the shoe sizes of the s2ks...

spoon sw388
16x7 +35 offset
16x8 +45 offset

i want to get the widest tires possible on this set up to have a 100% grip. what tire sizes are to go with these?

AND...would these clear spoon calipers or stoptech, or willwood calipers? all 4 pot.
If i need to run spacers, what MM and what MM is the max recommended?

so many questions...hehe...thanks for inputs

I'm not sure those offsets will work on the S from all the research and reading I've done for the last few days. There's a few threads on the subject already... on the first page of this sub-forum even...

well...I've heard that not many can clear spoon bbk and the stoptech bbk...even with sw388, i heard that it had to be custom sized to fit the spoon calipers...

i've searched all over to see if anyone has a setup lke this...and can't come across any...

thanks for the input anyways...

^^^

wow quadruple post lol

I think those are the right offsets with the spoon wheels, I would think that those wheels would work with the spoon calipers since they are the same brand. Best thing you can do is email spoon or call them.

I have the SW388's on Spoon BBK and clears just fine.

So no worries.
