I have 18x8 comps on mine et 35 on the front with 215 tyres and et25 on the rear with 225 tyres. I've had to cut the plastic arches on the rear and trim the metal and the front driver side was catching so had to trim that also. Passenger side was fine, must be cos I'm a fat c@nt lol. Hope this helps.

Cheers roger
