You'll need to do the arch screw delete mod on the front wheels. Even then you may still rub under compression. :smiley:
I had BBS CH 19"s on 235/35/19 tyres and Eibach coilovers. You may get away with it if you go for a bit of stretch on the rubber and use 225 section rubber. :happy2:
-
the 8.5 width will stretch a 235 further than the 8" wide CH so will help, 225's a bit narrow for an 8.5" rim IMO
-
225 is good on 8.5 i have it,doesnt look streched

Ok cheers then will just have 2 see then ,they come with 225 35 s so hopefully no probs
