Keep us updated LOTUSGTR as i was under the impression that those wheels should have fitted fine! I was just about to purchase wider lower offset wheels .. but might wait now until you've got this all sorted!

I've also heard that lipping the gaurds will give you alot more clearance, and is pretty painless to get done.

Cheers for the info / experiences.

Keep us updated!

Well, I think the wheels do fit fine. I think the tyres are too big without guard mods and other trickery. If I had my time again I'd go 255s or a smaller fitting 265 but good luck establishing that until it's too late. Personally, I'd not put anything on wider that 9.5 +22 but there are many opinions on this so it's up to you to decide what you reckon. There is nothing else to say.

I want you to open these photos with the 'Oh Yeah' song by Yello from Ferris Buller's Day off, in your head........Eat your heart out hellaflush crew. Trouble is they RUB. Yes, 18 x 9.5 +22 rubs. Front is too low, but.....the back rubs too. What do you know eh?

It's either up the height or.....wait for it.....roll the guards. Hope it ain't the latter, but I'm in love with these rims and they've got to fit somehow.... :(

Just roll the guards. you don't have to pump them.

Do you seriously consider it a major, or worrying job?
