I have this size tyre, on 8inch +22 i think, lowered, but with 3 degrees neg camber so is pretty much fine unless: shocks too soft (see another thread :shock: ), or you get very crossed up.

I have just had my guards rolled this week, very good job and inexpensive. If you need a ph number pm me.

Cool thanks craig.. I did see the footage of your excursion... Funnily enough i lost my gv lip at the same corner at the last club day when my tyre failed. If you want another let me know and we can split the postage lol.

What he said. 225/50/15 is a GREAT size for the nb, and no you don't need massive power. Are they quick? Ask Andy Harris.
