Hi all,
I'm needing to test fit some 15x8 (+35 to +38 offset) 225/45R15 rims and tyres to a car. Only need to one side of car to judge clearance and width issues for a FWD car. Should take longer than 30 minutes from hello to goodbye. Is there anyone in S.E.QLD that is willing to help? I will travel to location/house for test.
Thanks in advance.

Do you have the wheels and tyres Ryan or are you looking for someone that already does?
Don't drive it........RALLY it!

Re: S.E.QLDer wheel help.
Sorry, I am looking for someone that has that combo already. As I wanna purchase the combo if it fits correctly.
I doubt on the car the rears will fit without raising the height, but the fronts should fit fine as is. Have 15x7 205/50R15s currently and wanna see if I can push the limits a little bit more. Don't wanna go and spending $1600 on rims and tyres to find out the combo dont fit well enough/correctly.

I know it's a little more work, but have you considered a tape measure?

I've got 15x8 6ULs (offset +35) with 225/45/15 Toyo R1Rs on my SE that you could try if Saturday arvo is OK - I'm in Morningside, Brisbane.
Don't worry about dying, worry about not living!

Way past that stage. Done that already. Hence why I'm at the point of trying this, as all measurements pointed to very close tolerances/space.Jeo wrote:I know it's a little more work, but have you considered a tape measure?
