Hi
I have the same wheels in gold and am about to get them fitted to my PPW S2K.
Before i purchased them I was always under the impression that I would need to do some arch rolling front and rear before attempting to fit. However from reading your post it seesm like you have managed to get these fitted without any rolling just rear bumper tab relcaotion and tyre stretch.
Is that the case?
I'm about to book someone in to do my arch rolling before I get tyres, is that a bad idea, should I just go with strtched tyres and - camber? I alreay have full suspension set up. I would appreacite you experince with these new wheels.
Cheers
Frankie

already have them in that same sizing. I went with a 205/40 and a 225/40 and they fit like a glove. As for camber is probably around -3.5 and all i have is a roll. But I actually am getting rid of the set up soon. Going into paint and pulled my fenders now im running a 8mm spacer and can still fit my hand in there lol.
