What is the most I could push out my 15 inch 7js out on my 6N2. There is no stretch on the tires yet though. Cheers guys.

and is it lowered?

if its lowered you need to watch rubbing if not then you will be able to go a bit further...

Yes its on coilovers. Ive got 195/45/15 tires but I do not know the ET of the wheels. When I get time Ill take one wheel off to find out. Off topic but the number plates on a 6N2 just pull off? As Ive ordered pressed plates. Thanks.

most no. plates are either screwed or sticky taped... check for the screws and youl kno ;) lol

with those tyres on standard ish wheels and assumimg non-modded arches... then spacers could be a slight problem

either you can for a small 10mmspacer and might iss rubbing the arches... or if you WANT a bit of poke then get your arches rolled a bit and space out from around 20mm

theres a ghetto way of wheel arch rolling... take a phonebook or 2, depending on how low u are and put it between the wheel and arch area when jacked up... then let the jack down slowly to bend the arch out... as stated this is 'ghetto' and not for the faint hearted or newly clean/painted arch areas :P lol

an again pictures would be good so we know how much space ur playing around with and i we can advise you correctly :)

good luck :p
