    18x7 i would recommend mate 8's are too wide and 19's are too big without cutting inner arches out i'd recommend 215/35/18's

    cheers guys, not sure how low 850r is but has had inner plastic liners cut on standard volans.

    don't want hassle when fitting new brakes and having spacers etc.

    I guess porsche calipers fit under 18's

    I thought they fit under Volans / titans with spacers. I know they may fit under TSW 17s (or something similar)
