Anyone know if a 215/35/18 wheel will fit in the wheel well of a sapphire Cosworth as can't get smaller than 18" over my front brakes so was thinking of ordering another comp to put in as a spare.

car is away having some work so can't just try one of my road wheels in the boot to find out.

 

Ive been thinking exactly the same thing for the same reason.
Interesting to see if anyone knows

 

This is my 17 inch spare wheel with a 215/40/17 tyre on it. there still seems to be more space for a bigger wheel/tyre maybe?

 

Looks promising but can't quite tell if you have the extra inch around it from the picture to get the 18" wheel in as I know it's tighter towards the bottom of the well.

 

Looks like it will fit

 

That’s the size I have as a spare I think and it fits fine

 

Yes that will fit easily

 

Thanks for the info Martin

 

HALF an inch

 

Thanks for the replies. Will get another TH comp ordered and a tyre ready for when the car comes back 👍🏻

 

Not much difference in overall dia between a standard cosworth wheel and 215/35/18

 

I know a 215/45/17 R88R fits in, its tight and needs a yank to get it out.
