So i'm planning on getting a set of merc alphards 18 x 8.5 all around as i dont want 9.5 rears as i believe they are that the simple to fit without rubbing etc..

Anyway what else would i need for these to fit? also what tyre sizes you recommend for VERY slight stretch as i dont want to ruin the handling, still wanna be able to chuck it round corners.

Cheers
