XXR 527 Tyre help
Evening All,
My Gold XXR 527's arrived today.
18 x 8.75
ET35
5 X 100PCD
These are going on my 2002 WRX STI bugeye. My question is what size tyre is suited to fit without arch mods and rubbing issues. Am i correct in thinking a slight stretch is needed?
I'm UNSURE 225 / ?? / 18
Many thanks

Hi mate,I've got the same car and wheels running bc coilovers,lowered by approx 25mm.
I'm running 225 40 18. Had to roll the rear arches as they were rubbing on hard cornering and bumps.

Cool, looks like I will try 225/40/18 then. Hopefully the rears wont rub. If they do is arch rolling expensive? Not had to do it before and if so can anyone suggest a good place in worcestershire/west midlands.
Thanks for all the advice guys
