We all have sexy Clubman's 
+45 is only the standard offset on the standard narrow wheels
I rolled my guards on the side of a country road with a thick branch from a tree, worked really well, no paint damage at all. It was only after we got back and decided to go over it with a pipe (even rolled in rags) that we cracked the paint straight away
15 x 7 + 17 with 195/50/50's

15 x 7 + 17 with 205/50/15 semislicks.... Don't even think about it

Hi mate, good to see a fellow newbie! And thanks for all of your response as well guys. Zoomzoom, can you pls post some pics of ur ride? I'm interested to know what the 15x7's with +35 offset looks like as that would *probably* be close to the configuration I'll end up with.
Thanks !

Guys,
I went to JDMyard in Padstow this arvo....checked out some of their range and seemed that Buddy Clubs are quite nice and relatively inexpensive. I was looking at a set of 15x7\" SF's and the guy told me that the max offset I can get for those rims are +35
How did u guys achieve +15 or +30 with your rims??

Ive come across the Rota RBs in another forum that looks pretty mean and quite good for its price.
Heres the 13\"x8\" with +4 offset:



Im interested in getting 15\"x7\" with +4 offset... There is a group buy price if anyone is interested (roughly $600usd inc freight)
Im just getting a quote on how much flared Tuckin99 guards are before I commit to these rims.
