Thanks guys!!


So 18" lips on the 17s arnt doing if for me after more research... they dont look scaled right against the centres in other pictures as others have said.

So... new plan is:
on the front:
rear lip, rear centre, 15mm adapter, front barrel. this should give me a ~7.5" wide wheel. 205/45 tyre off the rear and enough offset that i could still wind the coilover right to the bottom if i wanted. Tyre will give me a bit more side wall height so i can close up the wheel arch gap without going to much lower. 205 will give me 8mm approx, 215 = 18mm approx extra tyre height

on the rear:
Re drill the flat backed front centre, so no adapter needed (maximum offset play), and new lips for some bigger dish, should be 9.5-10" in the end depending on what i can fit between the shock and arch.
and most likely a 215/45 tyre for a 9.5 wheel or 225/45 tyre for the 10", then add the camber plates.
Giving me again more tyre height, so i can hopefully tuck while still having some nice rake.

Shouldn't work out toooo expensive as ill just need two new tyres, two new lips, refurb existing lips, and drilling cost
