If they do catch on the outside you could always get your arches flared as a last resort.
How much are these special tyres, take it they dont come cheap then.AIJ29 said:Hi
21mm should be the correct offset for those wheels nearly every german cinq runs them.Make sure your suspension is rock hard otherwise the tyre will make contact with your arch.Also to keep legal you will have to fit tyres that leave you with a tapered sidewall as fitted to all euro look cars.your tread musn`t stick out past the arch.

Thats wat im trying to avoid as much as i like spending money on mods, i dont fancy forking out aload of cash just for lasrger arches, that dont look right on a little cinq.chrisunoman said:If they do catch on the outside you could always get your arches flared as a last resort.

P.s the cinq in my picture runs standard width arches

So 175 on an 8" will go
Im just about to put 165's on a 6.5" rim, so i'll let you know how that goes
