Will they fit? 18"x8" with 225 40 tyres. I believe the offset to be 42.

Thanked 7,752 Times in 5,648 PostsWhy is it that Amaltheas always look good on the early models and crap on the cars they were designed for?

Thanked 1,733 Times in 1,162 PostsTo 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.
