Quote from: probedb;513313Same wheels as you, lowered on HKS Hipermax coilovers, fronts are 18x8.5 with 235/40 and rear is 18x9.5 with 265/35...different spoiler than this one now tho....
 

Thats exactly what i was going to do with mine!
as iv got Kei D1\'s and a white fd too.
Shame the thing blew up the other week, so i have to put it all on hold.
I will have to think of a few different ideas now, as i dont want to be a copy :-) lol probably put the OEM skrts on instead of the feed ones.

I really need to lower mine.. i feel like i\'m running on stilts now :D
 
but it was a long term project when i got her, bodywork a bit tatty here n there, but it\'d only done 28k miles on an M plate 1994.
 

 
i\'m not a million miles from daventry either, wellingborough, northants.

not the best picture (that what i get for waiting until nearly 21:00 before taking the shot :p)

Fronts are 225/40/18, rears are 245/40/18.  Car hasn\'t been deliberatly lowered, but due to 16 year old springs is running about an inch lower than it should...

Hehe no worries, they\'ll probably not be seen together :) Spoiler is now a low-profile Feed copy, just needs some paint on it but looks 100% better than stock!

Wheel diameter on it\'s own is unfortuantely very little help :(
To work out any clearance issues you need to know tyre width and profile, and wheel offset, as well as what suspension you are running, and arch moods (if any)

Mine is also running on tired springs which causes the tyres to rub on the lowest part of the inner wings, (rubber away in certain places).
 
Picture is not ideal but you get an idea of wheel arch to tyre height.
