I know a lot is dependant on ride height and tyre cross section, but what sizes have people had on 360s running the correct offset and at what ride height?
185/60 14s came as standard, so 195/45 15 should fit, and Id imagine 195/50 would too. Whats the widest the rear arches will take? what about the fronts?
cheers

had 205 45 15s on at standard GLT ride height. Rubbed a tiny bit on the mud guards but I think it looks better without them anyway.

215/40/16 on a 7inch rim with 35mm offset are fine all round, with 7.5inch wide rim on the back with the same offset the arches need rolling!!!
