you MAY need to roll the rear guards, fronts will be ok

I had Ultra's in my VX clubby and had to roll the rear guards a little, but it was free when I purchased the 20's :)

Idont think its expensice anyway, I think around the 150-200 mark for rears, not 100% sure though, but i know it was'nt expensive

I have 255/35/20 on the rear of my VT. It has Kings Superlows (half the
tyre tucked into the guard) and guards rolled. No problems at all.

Theres alot of factors to consider. Wheel offset, Tyre Brand, Tyre Casing etc. Rear should camber in and clear the guards. Front will most likey scrub on full lock. Best size is 245/30 - 20 its the Closest match to the standard rolling diamater and speed and weight loading. 245/35 - 20 will throw your speedo out to much.

This has been covered about a million times! The correct size for your car is 245 30 20s, as stated above

You will probably be able to run them, however they will more then likely rub and also put your gearing and speedo out

Do you have coil overs on the front? if not you have bugger all chance of getting them on, back no prob if you have the guard rolled a little or dependent on the wheel offset. You may find the tyre might just touch the rear bumper where it meets the guard aswell.

Ive got 245/35/20s on my VZ, the car is pretty low, the front rubs everytime you turn the wheel or hit a bump in the road - I wouldn't recommend it. Im going to change mine to something smaller.

Righto thanks heaps all! So I need 245/30s to be able to chuck them straight on without rolling guards etc?

I'd be going 235/30s even 225 on the front.

If your not keen to roll the guards, go 245 on the rear and 235 on the front :)
Oh, and buy the best you can afford, this will have a bigger effect on the grip/traction than width in my experience.
