225's on 8.5J's? And I thought 225's look stretched on 8J's....

Are the wheels two different widths on the optional extra ?

I meant the wheels :thumbs: you say above 8.5J width on the front and 8j on the back ?

So if you go for the optional tyres / wheels do you get 0.5J (half an inch) wider wheels on the front, but not at the back ?
