Rear's will be fine, fronts may be an issue. The wheel itself will fit, not sure if you'll get a 265 on though, Have a look at the thread 275's all round by nelsonian, that might give you some ideas of inner clearance and probably even send him a PM to see what he suggests

Cheers mate

Worst case you reckon 255's will fit? Or even 245?

I'd say 245 will fit for sure. If I can get 245/35/20 +34 in no worries on 8.5" wheel then you shouldn't have an issue with the same width tyre only slightly wider rim. 255 and 265 will probably fit too it will probably depend on tyres brands though

Just a quick question on the topic of offsets etc. Got a set of dark argent copies - 20 inch. 245's all round, currently running a 245/30/20 tyre. I've had some tyre places tell me running a 245/35/20 could set the car off, making it think theres something wrong and flip the traction control out? I've heard it could possibly cause damage. I've also heard that 245/35 will be fine, and probably be even better.

Can anyone explain? Cause 245/35 are a lot easier to get a hold of than 245/30...

all 4 tyres the same size = win

you can program the tyre size into the ecu, pick the closest one to make things peachy

If you're in a B series then you can't change tyre anyway because fronts can't fit the 35 profile. If FG then go for it, there are dozens of people on here with that size tyre including myself, only problem is my speedo being out a little. When doing 100 im doing 103, not a big deal, just something I compensate for when going through speed cameras
