The G60 wheels are 15x7 et25. If I wanted to make them into 8" wide rim what would the offset be and would I still have issue if I ran 225 tire?

There is a set of baskets that I am looking at in a setup of 16x9 et0. If I was to reduce the lip to 8" width what would be the offset? Would I be able to run these with the 225 tires witout any issues?

In your post I am not quite sure what tire you are reffering to when pointing to the 7.5" rim maximum size for performance. I was thinking that the 225 shouldn't have a problem with 8" wheel?
