Rim widths
Hi, if you have a 8" wide rim(wheel) is the measurement taken from the two outer edges or the inner edge where the tyres contacts? its only a car!

No problem. Why do you want to know?

You going on the trip in Wales in Feb?....Are you taking the Mrs?...as my Mrs is wondering if many other wifes/girlfriends are going.

If so see you you there.

Hi Darren,
Reason being, I've just got some Mach 5's made by Matt lee, I ordered them as 16x9" just checking I've got my measurements right, the rims look Censored wide, measured them and there 9" internal 10" external, so wondering if the 285's will be as I imagined, not looking to small!

Regards Wales.
Yep going with the mrs,
I'm hoping to have the new wheels on too! See if the painters pull their finger out Rolling Eyes its only a car!

I thought the options were 8" or 10"....

Stick a size 10 shoe next to it, if it looks like this it'll be a 10" mine are 15 X 10s Laughing

 If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!
