Good idea mate, unless you buy some camber arms & the fit 15s all round Haha i dont think i have the knowledge for this camber , poke stuff! Cant get my head round the tyre sizes etc. Do you still have that arch roller for rent jay? Paddybrown23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

das_flo Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Fitment issues aside, you'd ideally want ET15 rear & ET20 front, to give the illusion of wider rears. ET15 all round with 215/40's shouldn't be too much of a hardship surely - Jay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEVIL 666 Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 8.5x18 et15 on the rear same as the style 32 (9x18 et22) rear wheel, only 0.6mm difference but the 215/40 on the 9j a bit more stretch so defo need arch rolling if it will be low. On the front et20 easy but I would use 205/40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a bit mate, I had a 215/40 on an et20 front style 32 & it rubbed a bit, you've got 5 less mm and 1/4 of an inch more sticking out, I know cjohnson123 got some of them et15s all round on a 205/40 all round & it was very close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docz2K9 Posted July 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 I was thinking of 215/35/18 all round & using all 4 et15's? I found that user "danniboi 330" used the same wheels (et15 all round) on his coupe & touring. He used 215/35/18's , im not sure if he has his arches rolled , they look rather close to the tyres though so i would've thought he did? You boys are the experts with these fitments so ill let you make your mind up haha. Appretiate the help guys R80CLE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEVIL 666 Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 I'd stick with 40profile. 35 profile on 18" a nightmare and you need to go very low if you don't want arch gap. Not the best if you use it every day but if it's a weekend car than hey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
