    Yes, they fit, but Lee had 215/45/17 tyres, and they do catch on the back slightly, mainly going around bends with the suspension compressed, a 5mm spacer would help,

    18's???????. Think that may look a bit over the top. Are you sure 17" ones won't accommodate the 302mm discs (302mm is only approx 12")

    Plenty of room under a 17" Tethy for 302's. I run 215/40/17's with no rubbing issues.

    The meaning of life constitutes a philosophical question concerning the purpose and significance of human existence. The concept can be expressed through a variety of related questions, such as Why are we here?, What's life all about? and What is the meaning of it all?. It has been the subject of much philosophical, scientific, and theological speculation throughout history and there have been a large number of answers from many different cultural and ideological backgrounds.

    The meaning of life is deeply mixed with the philosophical and religious conceptions of existence, consciousness, and happiness, and touches on many other issues, such as symbolic meaning, ontology, value, purpose, ethics, good and evil, free will, conceptions of God, the existence of God, the soul and the afterlife. Scientific contributions are more indirect; by describing the empirical facts about the universe, science provides some context and sets parameters for conversations on related topics.
