What if it's lowered with H&R Sports?

Just wondering if this sized tire would fit without rubbing when lowered?

it depends on offset. Mach V has a 235/40/17 on 17x8 on their R56.

I've seen the 003 on R53s. I presume it should fit.

Palo Uber MINI badges the same wheel as well, IIRC.

It's actually a 17x7.5. But yes, assuming the appropriate offset, it should work. The Rotas on our car are +45mm.

Try PMing member, Rubino https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...er.php?u=36823

He has these wheels on his car....though he has 215's and it hasn't been lowered yet. He also may not realize he has these wheels as he bought them from Palo Uber, but they are the same wheel....the sportmax is just cheaper.
