I may give one if it cuts a tyre at speed

In all seriousness, it isnt cutting the tyre up. Been there and done that.

i would roll if i was you, specially if you are getting new tyres. I didn't roll mine initially, until i saw what i hard corner did to the sidewall of the tyre. think of mozzarella cheese in a brand new cheese grater.

Jimmy S helped me do a test fitting of some rims for the Foz this morning. Service fantastic. Many thanks mate. Field of Dreams for the Win. Massive rear ender of 18 wheeler at the lights on tonkin leaving though, ambos, fire engine, coppers the lot. Looked bad !
Anyway
New rims are OZ Racing Ultraleggera gunmetal and size is 19 x 8 and we think the offset 48 The tyres on them are 235/40/19 93Y. I want to go up to 245 or bigger. Results are the SH Forester has enormous wheel wells and even 19" rims look small. I think they will look good if I just get the tyre size right. Thoughts and feedback and yes they are ipoo pics.

Rims look great. Drop another 2 inches for win maximisation.

Could go 9 inch with a meaner offset + more dumpage ??

LOL... Dave... Rims are OZ Racing Ultraleggera... But the size is right!

The front(pictured) has plenty of space, and with the 5mm spacer you forgot to put on, will look perfect... The rear is where the guard space issue lies, and hence I don't reckon you'll fit a 9" in there! Either way, you know my thoughts... Looks great!

sorry LOL fixed

9" rim would be right on the edge of possibility for the rears and not worth even attempting.
