i have got some wolfrace alloys for 80quid, they are et42 and have 205/50/15 tyres on them 2 of them look like brand spankers and the others 2 are ok.
I put the back 1's on yesterday just to see what it looked like and i got in and the rear arch was sat ontop of the tyre with about 3mm sticking out from the outside of the arch :evil: . is it worth rolling/flairing the arches to fit the wheels in or should i take the tyres off and sell them for some 185/195's?

wrong offset

185/55

or

195/45

tyres will be better but u will still have to mod the arch cause of the offset.

wot width is the wheel im guessing

7jx15??

perfect would be

195/45/15 tyres

on 6.5j x 15 ET 49 wheel ;)
