Tyres questions

<< < (3/3)

gords:
Basically, I got pictures from Mace showing where to cut - it's kind of where the arch starts coming down, to a point 1" back from the current edge. I went a bit mad and went 2" back :wink:  It looks jolly super though :lol:

I quite like the sound of 245/75/16's They got a bit more girth  :lol:

I not to worried about reducing the lock, I've got 33's on my 90 & its ok.

But I really wanted to avoid cutting the arches  :o

Mmmmmm  :-k

Morning, Simon, I'd like to put 215/85s on my car but I'm concerned that they'll foul to bodywork because I have aftermarket steel wheels fitted which are slightly more offset than standard.  I notice you haven't had any problems with your setup, can you tell me what sort of wheels and tyres you have?

Many thanks,


Phil.

Ok I've decided I want to fit 245/75/16's (I can get them for 80 quid each through work!) & I'm gonna cut the rear arches :?

But I do have just one question will then fit on my alloys .They have 205 goodyear's on them so I assume they are a 6" wide rim? Do I need a 7" rim for this or will they squeeze on  :?:

Oh & does any one have any close up pic's of the 'camel' mod? & do I have to modify the mudflap brackets at the back of the rear wheelarch?

Thanks guys :wink:
