Add an offset flange and you pick up another 2" off the mounting wall for possible a 12" rough. A little tight to assemble and you might need to use a street fitting. | |

I like your idea of moving it further away from the exterior wall, but I think even if I park it right in the middle of the two joists, a 10" rough-in toilet still makes the closet flange have to be almost right against the support beam, so I would probably end up needing more than 3" for the sweep. 3 inches just barely passes inspection and has me concerned I would end up having to bore it out more than that for the flange bend. | |
