And also x2 on ricexizxgood's question.
One more thing, when will you know how long it will take exactly?

Also, Dan has made changes to allow for 2 offset selections now: 30 or 40

FWIW, you CAN run a 225, 235, hell even squeeze a 245 on an 8-inch wide wheel. Doesn't mean it's the best thing to do.
Racecar engineering principles are pretty clear when it comes to running a tire on the widest wheel it will permissibly fit on. The tire simply will work better, which, of course, will improve handling.
That's just free grip with the same tire that might have been mounted on an 8-inch or even 7.5-inch wheel. It should be noted, however, that a 215 or smaller probably should not be mounted to this wheel.
