Rite-oh guys :clap:

Im thinking ................. :peek:

ive got 8x20s et 35

if i get sum 8x19s et50 then some rather handy 20mm fk pcd adaptors/spacers :sweat:

would then i be right thinking that would give say 8x19s et 30 :S

which in turn would sit ...... for say 5mm further arch wise than the 8x20 et 35 rims?

with a 215/35/19 tad stretched

would it work :evil: with so so chance of a lil sneak of the rim out the arch but the tyre pulled back in

that sounds about right mate yea. Would need to watch though, an inch smaller but that wee bit of width could be the difference between hitting the arch and not.

Shall i temp you!

I personally wouldn't fit wheels that need any spacers and would go for the correct offset.

yeah thats what i was thinking? which is why i wondered if i went for the 215 35 19 it may pull in that bit?

tyre measurments im abit less up on? is it rite that the 215 tyre would be 10mm narrower than the 225? if both would be based on a 8j rim?

You need to pick a wheel width 1st and then go from there.

Yes 215 will be 10mm narrower than 225 and then profile comes into it.

That site may help out a little.

I don't like the stretched look but if you go for a 8.5J you may need a slight stretch due to the width,but you will also need the correct offset.

jay you'd love it :p its BBS CH or CH/Blacks

8x19s with 215/35/19 falken fk452s, as ive always been told falken and pirellis tend to be the narrow end of their size

they list 5x112 pcd et50 8x19s

the fk adaptors bolt to the hub then the wheels bolt to them , so say spot on and no long bolts

which would leave ...................

Silver or Black

Don't they come it a 19 x 8J 5 x 100pcd?

I would go for the Black ones.

I would go for the Black ones.

x2 for black

8.5x19s are et30 from what ive hunted which gets me thinking 10mm further out the arch than the 20s

for those who dont know, the octy is red

the blacks are tasty . but i like silver too lol

hmmmmmmmmmmm :wonder:

black and red go well (i'm not biased honest )

Well ive ran a 205 on an 8.5J wheel before, and it was pretty stretched, not crazy though. A nice stretch, and did look stretched, so a 215 might be quite good for arch clearance without being to stretched.

Id go for silver, thes ones on it look smart in silver! Think the silver ch's would look good mate.

im starting polls everywhere with the black or silver

i really love both but with the price involved i cant have both lol:rofl: and black oneside and silver the other just ... no lol :p
