205 width R888?

[Keith185]

Anybody ran 205 width Toyo R888 (15inch wheels) on a clio?

What offset wheels, camber and suspension was it on as I've heard that they rub?

Thanks

i had 205 50 15's for a while, they were on 6.5j et 56 wheels with 10mm spacers, so standard offset for mine.
car is lowered on kw's but is set up for driving not looks, ie. not stupid low.

i didn't have any problems at all and did a good few trackdays like that.

cheers, doug

Thanks,

They would be on -43 offset wheels with -2/2.5 degrees of camber on the standard suspension.

So I should be fine then.

Doug, were you running standard camber up front?

Id watch with 2.5 neg camber that the tops of the tyres dont rub the shocks on the inside. Standard ride height you should be ok most of the time, but under load its something to watch out for.

Thats what I was worried about when I bought the last set of tyres, went for 195 width.

Just been out to my car, there isn't much room between the tyre and damper body as it stands.

Keith i ran 205's on the same wheels you have got there rears rubbed but a 2 mm wheel spacer would sort it out
