Hmmm...interesting..I will see on Sunday hopefully how they sit on mine....

If they don't fit at all then I have some nice Rays anyway and will maybe get some of those soft maragoni things that are meant to be super sticky!

I might be okay as I am not running as low as you :? :?:

Its spring seat or arch on mine at the back! I'm going to jack up the ride height and see, but it needs to go up a way so it may be a briadge too far. Front touching on arch, ride height tweak again. These tyres are beeeeeg! Car looks a bit 'tonka' now.

Are they sitting in the wheel arch then? I don't get any rubbing with my set up on 225/45 re050s and set lower than standard STi.

Im currently running spacers in the rear to get them off the KW spring seat and they catch the arch. The fronts are catching the arch but are well clear of the strut.

You did good getting them on Gerry! I will have to play around a bit, sure they will be worth the effort.

Yes it is Paul. Best idea is to phone this person: Lionel Reeves on 01920 823195 and ask if there are spaces left, if so then here is the link to the Entry form :D
