I had to grind my rears back slightly with 80-90mils fitted.
You'll find its the rear edge of the lip by the back bumper that rubs, due to the shape of the arch and the way the beam pivots

tyres are 195, not sure on wheel though, 6 or 6.5 id imagine.

just remembered though, my black one with the 100s fitted does have rolled arches. but when i had 80s on the white one they wernt rolled. but at the most all ul have to do is grind/roll the arches to suit, its not a big job.

iv lent them my mate and theyre on his nova at the moment, if i ever get them back i may sell them. but tbh, id rather give them to him than to sell them for peanuts lol
