smoke another one because the tire will be sitting in the same spot, and that is what I said... THE TIRE WILL BE SITTING IN THE SAME SPOT

since the tire is 225 mm wide (8.9in) wich is wider than either wheel the tire is going to sit in the same position regaurdless... you need to figure out TIRE clearance, not wheel clearance in this case and that is what I did with the +38 offset
