Some nice bits of kit!! Are al these car\'s you have owned or do you run a workshop or something!?
Anyway, by 215 being a bit thin I presume you mean too thin as a general size for an FD and not too stretched on a 8.5" rim? surely a 225 will have no real stretch on the 8.5" rim and a 255 tyre on a 9.5" rim will create a little stretch? The other option is 10" rears and 9" fronts with maybe 225 front tyres and 265 rears? But then it\'s finding the rims!
Did you have 20mm spacers both front and rear when yo had the +40 and +38offset rims? I presume this is all on a wide body car we are talking? What\'s the extra width of the kit compared to a standard body?

Yes,
Project 1
my silver FD became Bronze. RE-Amemiya Wide body

Project II
My Black FD became Forest Green. Feed Wide body

In answer.
225 had a little stretch on 8.5
255 had a little stretch on 9.5.

But it depends on the tyre. they were Dunlop Le Mans and Stretched quite a bit..

Currently. my 255 Advan Neova dont stretch at all on 10"
Very flat side wall.

You need to check the actual tread width. Some manufacturers list it. Some dont. Differs by more than a few mm sometimes.

Hey fella,

did anyone find out what kit is on the Black FD with the Work Meisters??

Also what are you doing with your standard wings and bumper etc

at the risk of hijacking (sorry Lee) - I have the Burnout kit (just finished everything) and have 2 x front wings and the rear bumper available. Will post some pics and details of the 19\'s I installed shortly.

Cheers, Craig
