Help! Slicks on FC

Trying to setup my FC for the track. (220rwhp)

What size slicks fit under stock fenders with coilovers?

What width and offset 15" wheel would work best?

Thanks!

I run an EP 1st gen on 23x9.5x15 Hoosiers.

This FC is for fun. But I want similar grip.

run the same tires, you can use them on the FC when you're done with them on the EP car

at least test fit them...

I would but 4 lug vs 5 lug. And they are too wide for stock fenders. 8.5" slicks are no longer available from Hoosier and Goodyear doesn't list their 8" slick anymore.

I need to know what offset and width wheel from someone that has experience with a particular tire size as well.

Thanks.
