Do you think a 27" tire will still clear everything if a guy went that route?

Ive thought the same thing in the past being the center hole is 70.3 vs about 67 mm stock. But many run the C5 and C6 wheel on the back of these cars with the larger center hole without problems.
I carefully worked my way up on the torque in an even pattern, took the car for a 15 mile test ride, then went over them again. I did not balance the wheels since I wont be using these on the street, and they are still very smooth.
At 140 ft-lbs I cant see them going anywhere, but you could always have a thin slight press fit spacer ring machined up for the center hole gap of about 3mm.
I think a 27" tire would fit, but the next size up Hoosier is 325/45/18 and they are 30.2" tall .... to much and may have to run a spacer.
I had my reasons for running these tires, best chance of fit with less hassle, price, and lower gearing.
