What tyres banny? Oh really don't say this so with rolling still not gonna happen? It's so hard to find a 17 inch wheel to fit over my brakes and fit under standard non abw wide **** arches.
Any ideas be much appreciated Iv already brought the cr311 tyres

Today I fitted wheels had to shave caliper tho to fit. Had bit of rub on hard right hand sounded like rear but seems of been front crap guard. Sits like a monster truck tho I got like 200 mm from side skirt to floor and 345 centre hub to arch front and 340 rear. Sound about right?
