you could make them fit alright but you would have to cut the archs and get fibreglass wide arch or metal ones made up lik!

i have 8 inch wide on the back with 225 tyre and have 75mm wide archs on each side :rockon:

They were a set my old man had in stock, they wernt actually for a Glanza, cant remember what they came off. They dont really give me a massive amount of extra width.

Tyre wise, iv experimented with a few. 225/40/16 T1-Rs, currently on 215/40/16 but considering going to a 215/35/16 to bring my gearing down abit.

The wheels are abit of of a funny offset off the top of my head, I dont have any clearance problems. :)

hello my mate as a set or borbet A's 9j rear and 7.5j fronts and the rears fit, all he has done is had the arches rolled, u will need a good set of coilovers and have them quiet stiff, tyre wise he has got 215/45/16 but he said he would advise 205/40 or 195/45 according to how much stretch u want

More pics of your mates car please, looks ace. similar to what im doing to mine, but with 16x8's all over. i know what tires im running on the fron but the back, im a bit clueless when it comes to stretching and what tire sizes to go for.
