Whats the largest size tire you can mount on the OEM wheels without rubbing or any other problems?

I'm looking to turn my Type-R in an off road machine......why you laughing? :wink:

For real though. Anyone?

Uhmm I doubt anyone in their right mind as tried it. If you want to rally your car, by a proper suspension setup for it that will lift it.

For autocross purpose, 225/45-15 fit well in the front and need a 5mm spacer in the back if you should chose.
Now, about this off-road deal...do you mean ..racetrack...or 4x4?????
