this fella has them, rollled arches though and a bit of camber adjustment.

they are XXR 527 in 17x8.25 ET35 with 205/45/17s

i'm thinking of running them on my GC, currently on Rota boosts 17x7.5. want to go a little wider.

Thanks for that mate, think the look pretty good on that classic. I think that car is on coilovers as it looks quite low, mine is running standard suspension so would I still need to have the arches rolled?

I'd say you'll probably still need to get them rolled, best to pm a pro on that though, like mags from ruislip tyres on here.

It will look very strange on standard suspension indeed! if your at the standard ride height?

Look like this

Il be getting coilovers personally before I buy the xxr's. Running tein s tech springs at the moment with my rotas.

The 8.25s dont look concave either like the wider versions.
Go wide or go home

Don't really want to go down that route mate, but looking at the picture in the link above, I think they don't look quite right if the car is running standard suspension (like mine is) might look at other wheels instead.

Thanks mags. Would they stick out past the wheel arche or would they stay flat against the side of the car? Also roughly what sort of price for a set with tyres.

Thanks

Matt.
