jim Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I'm running 10j rears with 35 et bud and needed some arch rolling, i've coil overs in too though. It was tight, you may get away with it depending on tyre size. Can't remember my tyre size off the top of my head but can check later if you need me to bud.

Nic Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Yes the will fit. The tyres will sit close to the wheel arch and you may need the arches rolling to prevent them from rubbing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Edit - d'oh, i've got 20mm spacers on too, that's why I rolled the arches. They'll fit no bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 They'll fit no bother. The fronts will be fine, the 18x10 +35 rears will be close the arches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 The fronts will be fine, the 18x10 +35 rears will be close the arches. They might be close but shouldn't need rolled bud, mine were fine before the spacers went on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 They might be close but shouldn't need rolled bud, mine were fine before the spacers went on. I had to trim mine with the same size/offset as listed above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackin_n_bashin Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 My Rota's are fine, have 265 rear rubber, no rolling required, think it starts to rub with 285+ tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) They might be close but shouldn't need rolled bud, mine were fine before the spacers went on. It'll depend on the size of tyres, suspension fitted and the ride height. The tyres will be very close to the arches, they may be okay or they may need the arches rolling to prevent rubbing when cornering hard. To illustrate these are 18x10 +32 with 285 tyres on the rear, they needed the arches rolling. 18x10 +35 will sit 3mm further in from the wheel arch.
