Will 18's work on a classic with coilovers?
 

I may have this in the wrong section, so apologies.

Suspension wise, I have spent a bit of time on my car (which is a 98 WR)- it has:

BC's
Anti lift kit
Hard C links at the rear
Polybushed all round

Thats a short list, but a fair wack of cash when installed!

I currently run 17'' wheels, but have been made a great offer on a few sets of 18's. Question is, for people who have tried, is the larger wheel going to be too much on a classic even with the above?

I am running 40 profile tyres at the moment which I guess will be similar on the 18's, and was hoping the new coilovers would be enough to handle any weight increase- what do you reckon?

i run 18's on mine with no issues 215 40 18 , 225 tyres do tend to rub

same! all ok with me and i agree about the 225 rubbing

Do you guys use your cars on track days or comps? That not supposed to be a nobby question, just trying to understand if its pure road use or not :) Im trying to understand on the limit handling as use it for our local hill climb.

Im running 215's at the moment, but previously had a little rubbing, which Im not sure isnt just due to the WR pack putting 7.5 wheels all round as much as anything.

all road use mate, for me
