Hey All,
What is the max rear rim size that will fit on an AU? I currently have Koni Adjustables and king super lows installed, will a set of 20X10 inch rims and 265/35/20 fit? Cheers |

I have 20x10s that came with my T3 and i use them sometimes with 275/30 tyres they rub on the plastic inners mostly but also scraped on the outside till i rolled the guards on the XR8.

Silly question ... why would you want to fit 10" wide rims when you are only planning for 265 tyres? They will fit nicely on an 8.5" rim. If you stretch them onto a 10 you will just cause yourself tyre wear problems. Not to mention gutter scrapes or even worse damage to the unprotected rim edges. Oh hang on, I did mention it! LOL.
I have fited 275 tyres on a 9" rim with no problems. I have also seen 285s on 9.5" rims with no problems. |

8.5" rims take 245's.
