Simply lay a straightedge across the back of your wheel (NOT the tire), and do the math. Add at LEAST 1/4" to provide for tire flex in hard cornering. There's a lot of wheels out there now economically priced that provide different backspacings~ my first source is www.summitracing.com Scott Quote Link to comment

I have around 1/2" total space on the sides of the rims or 1/4" (I run 15 x 7 +4et 195/50's) from my rolled fenders to my tires also around 1/4" from my inner tires to my strut tubes. Maybe if you can fit a 195/50 tire you can possibly squeeze it on. I will have to take some measurements of the rim to rubbing on the fender and struts. I also had to roll my fenders as well.
