If you do go the route of the 27x8.5 grabbers maybe take a peek at what the minimum required wheel width is for that tire too, might factor into things.

OK, from that site, I am good for suspension clearances. Outer wheel arch may rub but I won't need offset spacers from the looks of it. The protege wheels I have are 14X5.5 45MM offset. The wider tire, had to put closest Pmetric size as 27x8.5 screwed it up.

oh and here is the plan to stop the over compression of the strut top rubber mount. Those are the bump stops out of my CRV struts I rebuilt.
