I would say no, i didn't actually drive my car with them fitted but as you can see they do protrude a bit. Mine are ET25 with 215/40/17 tyres

and the front

I'd say they'll rub James. Mark had to roll his rear for 8x18s on an ET35. Forget about the rears though - they'll absolutely mangle the front arches lol

its all a tad confusing paul,i never rolled my rears on 8x18 et 33,the front is where the trouble is

They will rub on a 3dr aswell,guaranteed.

i thought maybe i might get away on the back lee,i forgot about the squattting ,but i do have a zoo rear beam so it may help a bit lol
