another fc offset ?

ok heres my situation. i wanna run 16x8 in the front and a 16x9 or 10 in the rear. the car is REALLY low, as in probably not more than 1.5" ground clearance. now what offsets am i gonna need to just clear the coilovers, that way i can space them out with spacers from there to where i want them. i'm not running wider fenders but i have rolled them. this is a race car so i also will be stuffing the biggest size tire on these wheels that i can. so any suggestions

thanks in advance

Race tires?
Wheel sizes beyond 255 / 50 / 16 is limited if any.

That rolling circumference is WAY bigger than stock.
Good luck trying to get it to fit.

+15 up front and +25 out back, maybe a +20 front and +35 out back but it depends on SO MUCH, man get some wheels and do some measuring with spacers or washers, etc.

trial and error!
