“the tasteful thickness of it”

 

[Renardi]

I have these really nice gunmetal TSW Bathrust wheels laying around. They come off my previous car which was a CX-5.

Size is 20 x 8.5 ET 40 and are rotary forged.

I can't mount them because the tire fitted is just too wide and high and I don't want to invest in new tires just to find out that they won't fit.
So my question would be : Can this config work with 235/30/20 tires? Or is the ET too much?

Thanks,

Christophe.

That´s gonna be very close. You might get away with it on a pre Fl, but on a Fl they will rub.

Thanks for the reply Tim.
In fact my car is a pre FL, so I might give it a try.
