225s on ae101

Postby bluemaumau » Mon Jan 15, 2007 11:22 pm

ok so i got my new wheels which are 7 inch wide with 225s for the front on 205 for the rear.

i know the 205s fit, but has anyone run 225s on the front of a ae101 before? did you have to remove inner guards, roll guards etc?

cheers

I'd say they'd fit in there fine. On ae101s the only issue with width is usually in the rear

They should fit. I have 215`s on my car and still have space between the shocks.

yea lol.

i was looking at my inner guard earlier, which has bolt/screws heads which look like they may rub.

can you even roll front guards
?
