Ash007ks Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 18's :) however i would say depends if you have rear passengers alot ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash007ks Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 it all counts, depending on offsets etc that your going for i would say getting the arches slightly rolled will allow for a better fitment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betchers Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 Ive already got inovit blades on 205/40/18 so all shall be well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash007ks Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 mine with 18's rolled arches and lowered, where its driveable, as its set up for fast road and track, but passed the point of rear passengers. so it depends on what heights etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash007ks Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 its not just the size though you need to look at what offset the wheel is as this is what causes the issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Lowered on 18's with wheel spacers I found lower profile tyres cleared my arces with rear passengers but I struggled with potholes and the front's destroying the walls of the tyres so went larger profile now they rub :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betchers Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 Haha i made a last minute decision and backed out... i have the mot in a month or so and i would rather see what that says before i spend 800 odd quid... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudson Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Got mine on 18's just the other month in hyper black and really like them, I went with the wide 9.5's and put a bit of tyre stretch on as I couldn't resist the wide concave spoke look although they do stick out the arches ever so slightly but still need to adjust the camber to neg 1 or 2 deg as it's 0 now and going to tinker with the ride height a bit as it's too high as it stands now, needs to drop a good 20mm without getting too low... I had the rear arches rolled for £80 to compensate too. The car still handles great on the road :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
