Hi all, I have just bought these wheels from rare rims,

18×9.5 front +12

18×10 rear +22

Does anyone know the best size of tyre to fit arches properly?

Car has standard suspension at mo'.... i am thinking 255/40 fr 275/40 rr, will i need to roll arches?

I was gonna paint centres gunmetal but i think i like the green now ....lol

Did a bit of test fitting today,

Think rear arches will need rolled but look pretty flush....

Fronts im not so sure about....

I am putting 275/40 tyres on back and i have 245/45s to use up so might put them on front until i get 255/40s if they will fit....

I will now have 2 nankang ns2r tyres 225/45/18 for sale in Nothern Ireland almost new, very little wear...

Opinions/ advice on the wheels/fit welcomed....

Not sure about your fronts, but I have 18x10 ET+12 rears, with 275/40 tyres, and I just needed to roll those - think you'll be okay with ET+22.

 

EDIT: Here's how it was before rolling

Yea, I didn't really want to do mine at first - but Tarmac could only get hold of one 18x10 ET35. And that would have needed spacers anyway.

 

Got away without the roll for about 3 months before just the right combination of stuff in the boot, passenger and borderline ploughed Cambridgeshire roads caused a problem. But FWIW rolling them was pretty easy, and only about an afternoon to do.
