Largest width wheel under a classic?
Have 18 inch running 215/35
Will these be 7.5inch? width, is this the most sensible width or can you put up 8 inch width wheels on
on 8*18 what is the normal tyre profile?
I am looking for 18's that will fit over my Porsche Brake kit without the need for spacers - currently have old Speedline Corse wheels - had them for about 7 years
But 2 are buckled and 1 extra badly buckled - badly buckled on the rear and thats through normal driving - no crashing into potholes - mostly over the strips at racing circuits have buckled the wheels!

I've seen classics running 8x18 with 215/35 tyres but these look stretched. 225/25/18 are an alternative and I think Speedline Turini's may fit over the Porsche brakes, don't quote me on that though
