hi i'm getting a rwd sapph and i have a set of std esc cos wheels in the loft and was wandering whats required to fit them, eg. spacers and tyre profile,roll arches, if they will fit at all that is!

 

got esc rims on my rwd saff. ive got 215/40 tryes and the arches are rolled.

 

Mine just slipped right on!!
No arch rolling required if you use the right tyres,
mine are 205/40/ZR16 on a 4x4 saph

 

my mate uses them with no probs,but very close to the front callipers

 

yer mine to, but they clear, no probs.

 

was looking at doing this myself.
Should the tyres not be 45 profile? I thought that if you went up an inch in wheel size then you came down by a value of 5 on the tyre profile.

Don't seem to be to many options on black circles website.
