your going to have some major problems fitting tyres to those mate the recess in the middle dont look like it would allow you mite get away with it when fitting the the outer part of the tyre onto the rim you will have to squash both beads into that recess its guna be tight if you look at most wide rims they have a shallow bead at the back which is usually very wide

I know what you're saying mate. Same discussion going on the Wheel-Whores forum at the mo about my steels! Like I said there, if tyres can't be fitted, I've only lost £16!!!!!

Hey Dan7,
