      With the right offset you can easily fit 225's with no fender rolling or anything.

        Yeah, if you want your wheels sitting a foot inside the fenders, and your tires rubbing on the strut housing. With rolled fenders, and depending on the width and offset of the wheels, you can pull off 225's, but that's about the widest.

          I'll say it again. With the right offset you can fit 225's without rolling the fenders.

            235s will easily clear with rolled fenders. Hell, I could even get 255s under my fenders.

              I have 245's on the rear rub a little on the inside, ~15mm to the fender.
              225/45 R16's ET28 16x7's fit with acre's of space left!!!

              245 Fronts rub at full lock if you don't have steering stops (turner MS sell them).

                  Yup. And depending on the tire, 245s will fit will just a good rolling of the fenders.

                      With a stiff enough suspension (linear springs aka coilovers), 245's.

                      Without that, 225 or so.

                      These are both without any sort of rolling.

                        Nick I knew you would chime in on this one, you were running 225s on your unrolled fenders when you had the cup kit weren't you?
