Nebs on a S70

[Shan4steve]

Hi guys, just bought a Dec 98 S70 2.5,
Question is will my 18 inch nebulas fit on,
Without rubbing to bad on the arches.
Thanks in advance
Steve

Yeah they'll fit.

225 tyres are about your limit

[Shan4steve]

Thanks mate, thought so do you think 225/35 or 225/40 are a better fit

[Doingitsideways]

Can't remember now tbh.

I THINK I have 40s on my 18" replica Pegs. They would certainly make the ride much less harsh than 35s too.

I'll check when I get home tonight if Nobody's given a definitive answer by then

[Doingitsideways]

Just checked mine and yeah, it's on 225/40/18s.
I tried my Nebs on a C70 with 235/45s and they wouldn't fit. Nowhere near, as the tyre fouled the spring pan on the strut.

From memory, you'll probably need to run a small spacer on the rear to stop rubbing on the inner arch, as pretty much all P2 wheels do.
My fake Pegs don't rub without them for some reason, maybe a slightly different offset.

You'll definitely need C70 lock stops either way.
