Demon Tweeks told me that any lower than 40mm on 17's would need the arches rolling.

Absolute bollocks mate!

Ive got a mate running 18s with a 75mm drop on coilovers - no rubbing.

Aslong as you get the right offset you should be fine - just dont fit anything over 7.5" wide! You can fit 8" wide but best to fit a skinnier profile tyre and thinner width to avoid rubbing.

Pop over to www.ffoc.co.uk - theres plenty of threads on there about it!
