Fronts will fit similar to my Fuchs which are 7'' with ET23, however the recommended tyres will be too wide and tall. I'm running lower, more neg camber and 16''

The rears will not fit as the ET10 will cause them to poke out of the arch too far. You can run a 7'' with ET23 or higher as per mine but again I'm lower, more neg camber and 16''. My tyres are equivalent to 205 50 16 in size. There's also a 10mm spacer in the rear versus the usual 20mm.

what do you have on the front Steve ?

I'm about to put some Cup 1's on mine

Fronts 16 x 7 ET55
Rears 16 x 8 ET52
possibly with 205/55/16 and 225/50/16

7x16 ET23 genuine Fuchs with Avon 195 50 16's (they are 205mm wide) on both ends. No spacer on the front but 10mm on the rear. About 60mm lower than stock. Lots of neg camber to tuck the wheels into the arches

Your tyres will be tight to the arches Jason. They wouldn't work for me

7x16 ET23 with 205 55 16 on both ends in this pic. The 225's wouldn't go under the arch. A larger ET may help but you are in danger of hitting the inner arch. Undriveable at the front end as is

I have been trying to work out if the 225's will be ok

Currently have 195 65 15's and there seems to be plenty of room

Will be dropping mine around 20 - 25mm

No issues with the front's
the rears will sit 15mm wider on both sides but the rear arches aren't rolled :?

Cheers. Thought the rears would be toooo wide. That red and white car is stunning btw
