7.5x16 ET37 on type 44Q?

[Joshua Van Tol]

It will rub. I tried that combo, which tire rack sells for that car,
and claims will fit. it will not. It rubs pretty badly, and would need
massive amounts of negative camber to make it fit. I ended up with a
7x16 42 mm offset, and those don't rub, but just barely, and I have 3/4
degree negative camber in the rear.
