oj121 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 After help on sizing! Currently a stock uk gt but with the original wheels(not rays). Have 225/45/18 fronts and 245 rears as normal. Recently found a set of td race pro 1.2 for sale that look in good nick. Issue is they are 18x8j sizing and currently 245/40 tyres all round. Id intend to put my current tyres on as they are a month old. I obviously want to keep the stagger but tyre/wheel sizing is alien to me. My concern is the 8j rim size really along with clearance in the arches. Will my 225/45 tyre fit on the 8j rim or is it simply too wide to accomodate them? If they do fit can i expect any issues with these wheels or will it sit fine. Think the wheels are offset 38 if that helps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadtrip Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 The standard wheels are all 8" wide so your tyres will be fine. With an offset of 38 you'll probably need spacers though, 20mm would be good with no issues or arch rolling required, you might even get away with 25mm.

KyleR Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 As mentioned before, your stick rims are 8j too, but I'd be going for a spacer 25mm front and 30mm rear with an offset of +38. Should have no problems if the car isn't lowered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
