    225/40/18 fronts and 235/40/18 rear would be my choice. You'll need a roll on the front and a roll and slight pull on the rear arches

    My 9.5 et12 with 225/40/18 rubbed on standard suspension so I'd imagine yours will also It'll also look like a 4x4

    Ah righto, im probably not going to fit them till we get past the nasty weather so maybe wait till i get my coilies and get it all sorted in a one go. Dont suppose you know of any garages in the east midlands that do arch rolling??
