7 & 9 X 16 Fuchs fitted (with pics.)
I have just fitted my 7 & 9 X 16 Fuchs and here they are in an MSN Album.
They are various angles front and rear of the old 6 & 7 and then a couple of how the 7 & 9 fill those arches. It needs lowering, so not there yet with the look. What ride height should I be looking for - I want to keep my teeth and we do have potholes on these here roads ? Rear currently 25.5" but not clear on the front as my drive is not level. What tyre pressures should I now be running given the new wheel / tyre combo - currently set to 2 bar front and 2.5 bar rear - car feels a little 'floating' on the motorway at this. Cheers for now. MSN Album

My car is 25" F and 24.5" rear. My tire pressure is about 32 F and 34 rear. New tire can feel floaty for a while.

David,
I am running 205 & 245 so hope to not get any rubbing issues. Am looking for 24" or 24.5" at the rear (one finger gap between arch and tyre top !).
