if you dont go silly low and get a good stretch on the rear tyres then you will get them on. Im on 8x16 et 22 with a 195-45-16 with no real issues, standard arches too.

Thats what i thought, rimstyle advertise everything at et 35-38. Its something to do with inner dish isnt it?

I really like them, you will get them on, look on edition 38, loads of tight rim info  :smiley:
