It's pretty darn close but they haven't rubbed yet when I first removed the sticky labels off the Tyres I picked up a load of gravel off the drive and Jesus wept did they make a horrible sound as they got trapped. A few high speed roundabouts and all is wellJesus, looking at those clearances makes me LOL
They are tempteing to buy, I might have enough spondoolios soon too... though I need to be sure that Nipper survives the dyno first and that his new clutch can cope.

Sadly not half the price of DTC's, but a bit cheaper @€796,- incl. VAT...

The rears are 235/40R17. They touch the black 'mud guards' edge at the top in extreme situations. That is touching, I wouldn't even call it rubbing, and only when challenging the impact capacity of the suspension.
The picture below should give you an idea what space is left.(not much!)
It's taken when I had my first set of R888 and wanted to check the free space between wheel and clam. I've forced the wheel into the wheel arch by placing a 6" high piece of wood under the rear wheel before lowering the car with the jack.
Since these rims are likely to be wider than what's currently under your car. Please check if the support clamp from the hand brake cable runs free. The one that is located on the lower wishbone. Mine touched the balancing weights the tire company put on the inner edge of the rim. This was very easy solved by bending the clamp to raise the location of the cable locally.

I've got 888's on the front, 205/40 R17. There's no rubbing at all.

235-40-17 rears with 205-40-17 front => no problems on DTC's and looks
Is this the same as standard setup with standard wheels? Never seen these in the flesh but to whoever has seem them do they look better than the pro race?
