Hi all
Looking at changing my alloys. - 2008 Rav 4 2.2D
I want to get some 18 x 8.5 inch and fit 255 / 60 / R18 all terrain tyres
Anyone done anything similar / know whether I will have all - round clearance?
Thanks
Jon

Nice one, that site is helpful, not sure what the OEM wheel setup is though! in terms of offset etc

What do you have on the car today? The standard 18" wheels would be 18x7.5J shod with 235/55 R18s ... (and they fit just fine  ) |

I have 245/45x18 tyres fitted to alloys. The speedo is out by about 10%..ie 40mph showing is nearer 35
I kept the steel 17" wheels...perhaps for off road tyres, but I have all weather fitted just now, and having had some body panels resprayed after buying it 4 months ago, would be a bit daft green-laning it!
What I need is a lottery win sufficient to buy Big Kevs 2006 RAV,

I was looking at 255/60/18.
With your setup, is there much room between tyre and bodywork?
