Wheel fitments with rivet on arches

If you run a 245/35/17 at 10j with an offset of 20 your rolling radius will be almost the same, your inner edges shouldn't rub and you'll have an extra 6.3cm of poke which should nicely fill your arch extensions..

I run stretched tyres of my van. However that's because there is no other suitable size for load rated tyres in 17".

17x10 on the rear with 235/55/17 Now.

Then there's always the other extreme

...

Just google-image "stupid camber", it's unreal how many reasonably powerful cars just look absolutely ridiculous and are running on just 5% of their tyres!

Terribly.
I just think they look like the car is squatting down to take a sh1t. Probably to poop out the driver.
