Thumbs up AP1 wheels whats the widest you can go?

ok so I am running 4 rear wheels on my race car they are stock AP1.
I am trying to figure out what the widest tire is I can fit in there both front and rear.

I want to use the same size on all 4 wheels
not running front fender liners and going to have 2 or 3 deg camber...I think...

also does any one know what size I need to get the wheel center machined to for the front hub?

thanks in advance

Running Toyo RA1's by the way.

245 is the widest 25" overall diameter 16" tire ive ever seen in my life.

so basically what you are saying is I can use the 245/45/16 on all 4 and be ok with the stock rear 16x7.5's

I am running the stock wheels for the season because the max I can go in ITR is 17x8.5

next year I may go ITE and then I can get the big 18s and kick ass !!!

so it looks like I am going to order some 245/45/16 RA1's and call it a day
