[jdavis]

Wanting to put the wheels off my p2 on my 855.
Will they fit? 18"x8" with 225 40 tyres. I believe the offset to be 42.

[p fandango]

i think you might be pushing it with those tyres, i'm sure i got a bit of rubbing with 225/35/18's

[Jamest5r]

I'm running. 225/40 on the fronts and they only rub on full lock or if I go over a.depression in the road occasionally on the arches, only got 215 on rear so can't comment on that

Put the amaltheas off the p2 on for now to enable it to be moved to be fair they look OK. Going to try my 18s on swap over day. Could be fun lol.

[martybelfastt5]

been thinking that pedro time will tell lol

[M-R-P]

Why is it that Amaltheas always look good on the early models and crap on the cars they were designed for?

That's one of the reasons I painted mine.

Strangely, Comets look superb on a P2.

Just to confirm, yes they do fit

[JUDGENINJA]

To confirm.... Yes... Phase 1 V70 T5 (iamawookie's car now).

Had 235/40/18 on the Tritons. Bit Wobbly on the corners though and yes they rubbed at full lock.

Car was also run with VST 18 alloys with 225/40/18 which were much better for handling.
