i run 185/60/r13 tyres on mine but i only have 5.5 inch wide alloys and thar be zero scrubbage there but it's not a massive amount of room so i think you may be pushing it with 7" without archwork.

although i'm sure someone like demon or polokris will be able to give better advice mate :wink:

p.s it also depends on the offset

you mite get away with it... but i doubt it... lol....


depents on the offset, iv got 7J rims, 15's and they scrub like fuk, and iv dun loads of arch work. :oops: gettin there tho!

i have 195/45...

185/60 wont provide enough streach to get away with it :cry:




BUT... i may well be wrong... :shock:

you can gt a 185/50 tyre, but I dont think you' be able to it mate, maybe with just a 40m drop but any lower and it won't work. none of my advice is based on fact, but this what I think will happen
