Thanks, but is there anyone actually running what I'm asking so I can get an idea

You'll be fine on 30mm, but to give you that bit more space run a bit of stretch , something like 215/35/18

quality of the wheels was spot on but they are very heavy fitment is also good but you should get 225/35 or 215/35

i had 235/35 and they rubbed occasionally but my wings were rolled
