I don't know mate, I also have the 9.5" rims and they are as tight as Gordon Brown's budget. I'm sure there's more space at the rear but I would question what 4wd issues there would be? Or are you thinking Rear Wheel Drive manual gearbox? ;-)

I'll measure the gap between the wheel and inner arch .I've found a nice set of wheels but the rears are 11x19 !!!! fronts are 8.5x19 .
