Nope, had 7's with 245/50's on the rear of my ute with the outer lip cut off. Rubbed on the inner wheel well when cornering.

see 245 is a big tyre it would have bagged out on the rim atleast if not more than 1/2" each side so a 8" rim with a smaller tyre that's square to the rim should go i've had 10"rims with 235x50 tyres on one years ago but there was more rubbing than i want these days, don't mind some rubbing on the inside up driveways etc

sucks shelling out good money on wheels when not sure if they'll fit

You can borrow my ones to check offsets if you want, Mick.

got some on the austin it's just a matter of getting access to it and then leaving it without a wheel or wheels
