Reply to "Help me choose my new wheels"

So for now, I'm going to continue recommending these offset values for the rear tires, in order to achieve the spacing in which the rear tires "become exposed" from under the fender at the belt line, where the body begins to roll under. This results in a small amount of inward recess from the fender's edge.

Tire Width | Offset
335mm ...... 22mm
325mm ...... 17mm
315mm ...... 12mm
305mm ...... 7mm
295mm ...... 2mm
285mm ...... -3mm
275mm ...... -8mm

With the understanding that:

(1) tires with more than 12mm offset will require additional shock bumpers to limit suspension travel
(2) any rear tire greater than 26.5” diameter and wider than 285mm MAY rub the Ansa mufflers
(3) the 17” wheel designed for the 335/35R17 tire must be no wider than 11”, and must use 12mm offset, otherwise it will hit the lower control arm pivot
(4) wheels 18” in diameter or larger are large enough in diameter to clear the lower control arm pivot, they are not limited to 12mm offset or 11” width

Mr. Foose apparently used 9mm (3/8") more offset than this when the first Pantera was updated with 285mm rear tires. That car is now in private hands, anyone have a picture of that?
