Gents,

I have a set of MO's with 245's at the rear (ET35). Has anyone managed to get these onto the back of a Sapphire?

Many thanks

i had 215/ 35 /18 on my saph and i had scrubbing. but then the car was quite low.

i ended up having to put bumpstops in the rear just to stop the car filling full of smoke from the tyres scrubbing on arches when i put my foot down

I'm hopping to fit 245/35/17 to the rear of my 3r & 225/35/17 to the front, have used 235/40/17 on the rear with R888 trackday tyres 7 the only time i get a problem with scrub is at paddock hill Brands Hatch.
