DD that is correct . Problem is we can't get those tires here in Australia . Trust me I have searched all avenues to try and bring the wheels in more by reducing the width . Our smallest tire here is 215/35/18 . I'm not sure how a 215/35/18 will go on a 6 inch wide rim .

It'll fit nicely if you use 18x6 rims +30 offset with Nanking or Toyo 205/35R18 tires. It is a custom size wheel, get them machined for 4x114.3 bolt pattern.

Hey mcdat , you will have to modify the foot well by cutting and moving backwards aswell as pulling the wheel forward or it will foul . You will have to obviously cut the front of the guards aswell and pumping the front guards also I machined a few mm off the face of the hubs aswell . When your trying to fit 18s on the front every mm counts . U will want very solid front suspension also cause if u don't your tire will grab the guard . There won't be much room between the tire and guard . That I know of my car is the only 1200 with 18s all round and if I could have gotten the wheels I have in 17s I would have . Just to save the stuff around and to be able to have more travel in the front . In saying that though I still think it looks tough with the big wheels but hey that's justy opinion

Hi Qkcoop what did u have to do to get the 18's on the front?Ive got a ute that im doing up and are planning to get the rear tubbed so theres no problem with the rear.Im also getting the maddat front end which will all be adjustable so might be able to pull the wheel forward away from the foot well or is that not necessary.Your advice would be appreciated.

now your gett'n technical

DD u only checked ute and sedan there . Coupe have a longer wheel arch I believe as when I had my sedan I tried to fit my front 18s on the rear but they would not fit in the arch however I put them on my coupe and they did not foul anywhere . Maybe it was just the height thing you said . But I never stretched the rear arch on my car and I fit 265/35/18 and the car is pretty low over the tire .

why 18"s answer "why not" do you want to complement the car or get noticed!!, be bloody rough as guts, id be more inclined to drop a size with more wall, but each to there own,

Exterior body arches appear to be identical.



215/40R18 tires are 24.7" tall diameter.
Stock 1200 tires are 21.8" tall.

That's 3" difference or 1.5" radius change. It will fit under stock 1200 body -- if it has not been lowered. But will rub when you go over bumps unless the wheel is centered (on the rear at least -- max 7.5" wheel, +30 offset).

first of all you will need to tub the rear if your trying to fit 18x8. you will never make it up a driveway if you dont as the diff will pick up one side and pull down the other and you will be stuck. you will also have to stretch the rear gueard as i beleive 1200 uts have a smaller wheel arch on them and they will not fit in the standard one. you will also need to stretch the front guards and also do modifications to the front inner wheel tub as they will rub. you will not fit a 18x8 wheel in the front unless you run flares. there was alot of f&%king around to make these wheels fit let me tell ya.

Cutting the diff narrower won't help as you are at the limit of space inside the wheelwell. You could "tub" the chassis, but that requires ICV engineering I think.
