I have standard v230 alloys which are 225's all round. on the front the inside tyre wall is almost touching the suspension leg according to what i've read the standard alloys have an ET of 45...so how am i ment to go wider than the 225 without chewing up the inner wall of the wheels?

this is why we need people to post there setups
The inside clearance stayed the same as the 16" ML wheels i had fitted with 225 width tyres, the wheel & tyre now come out (flush) to the wheel arch. The ET of the wheel is 52. I'm debating about refitting the 16" wheels so i can lower the van as well. The van drives well, the only time i had a problem was when i had reinforced tyres fitted, the van was horrible on anything less than smooth roads. Changed the tyres to ones without reinforced tyrewalls & the problem went away.
