WHEEL & TYRE FITMENT GUIDE

<< < (11/18) > >>

Vish8895:
Brilliant write up here cannot tell you how many questions you've answered! Cheers!

Vish8895:
Have a question already :(!

I am looking to install some Koni shock with some H&R springs. I am unsure of the ride height afterwards, but wanted to ask, how can i tell if wheels are going to fit (offset and width etc) before bidding or purchasing (will probably be buying used and bidding on ebay).

Thanks
Vish

NJ57_BAZ:
Question here too. Would they be any poke or would they tuck in or be in line with the arch if i buy 18x8.5 with an offset of 47. Any help would be great. What tyres should I run with this? Will be lowering the car on springs around 50mm. Thanks.

ash_woolston:
I'm still quite confused

I'm looking at getting Mercedes amg magnesiums, fitment is 5x112 et 35
8.5 fronts 9.5 rears staggered, will 225/40/18 tyres fit?

simon0014:
Yes those tyres would fit but I would suggest getting at either 205/35, 205/40, 215/35 or 215/40 as a 225 on a 8.5j will have next to no stretch with a 225/40 so is likely to catch/rub on the arch depending how low you choose to go.

225/40 on a 9.5j should fit nicely though.
