Thanked 731 Times in 600 PostsThey'll go on okay, But why? Volans look ace (As do the 18" Pegasus)
If you do sell, You won't have much trouble punting on the Volans.

Put bigger lock stop on, then to won't have the scuffing problem.
I ran 7.5" tethy's on mine with 215/45/17, once I put 5mm spacers on, I had no problem with catching.
