Is there 1 knocking about? I've had a look but can't find 1, will a 8x18 with et35 fit an is? Thinking of getting rid if both current sets and going for something completely different

yip gord is right im running et35 8x18 i have no arch work and mine is dropped 90mm front and 100mm rear but i am running a little camber on the rear and i have to use 215x40x18 tyres no chance of using 225's as their is no room.

so if i wanted to fit 18s on mine but run 225s then what would i have to do? Bare in mind mine isnt lowered so think i'd be able to get away with the same spec wheels as u with wider tyres but i do also want room for improvement incase i lower it.

remember if you go for sizes gord has said there will be no probs, and if you wanted them out a bit more you could use spacers.

right then looks like i'll be going for 8j rims then i think and possibly 235 tyres as they should fit with the car not being lowered anytime soon.

^^^^^ no danger with a 235 with a et of 35 you will defo stick out past the arch!!
225 you might get away with as long as its only you and a front seat passenger and thats a might..
you might not have lowered your car but when you are carrying people and shopping the springs will compress so you will get rubbing the safest thing you can do is get the 215x40x18 tyre i am speaking from experiance if you want to go wider than a 215 scrap the et35 wheels....
