stuart1298 6 Posted May 13, 2010 ok, will they go on the wheels tho? i dont mind getting thegrinder out, and some spacer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
timb1046 1 Posted May 13, 2010 the wheels are designed for 185 tyres. 205's will be able to be fitted, but its your decision wether you think that'll be safe or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jrod 7 Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) i dont mind getting thegrinder out, and some spacer I honestly don't think you'll make them fit without rubbing, if you do it will be a stupid amount of cutting. With 205/50/15 it rubbed like mad using these arches: Edited May 13, 2010 by Jrod Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

welshpug 1,645 Posted May 13, 2010 they should be 205 60 15, so 205 55 15" will be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
