Hey guys,

Just seeing who is running wider tyres on their gen3 libertys..

I run 225/40/18 on 18x7.5 with 55 offset for my everyday rims,

But now have put on 235/45/17 on 17x7.5 with 40 offsett and 3mm spacers to clear brembos.. But my tyres are now 15mm out of the guards all around

If i get my guards rolled, pumped and run more neg camber on. The front it may help, but the rear has no camber adjustment

235 is prob abit wide for a 7.5" wheel and the offset should be 48 to fit abit better. But just want to see what others are running


Front

You want/need the Whiteline arms Lance.

With the arms (so camber all round) and the guards rolled and pulled I reckon a 245/40 or *maybe* a 255/35 (this size goes on GD Impreza's fairly easily now) would fit.

BTW, I have a guard roller...

Edit - this is for street tyres, no idea on slicks or semis

Holy crap Lance those tires look meaty on those rims!
I can't help here as I own a gen 1 and run 215/35 tires

semi's have a different sidewall construction, 235's on a 7.5" is completely normal.

They look like the rims off my old RS Lib!!

Very keen to hear more about what tyre size fits under Gen3s as I need to get started on my plans for world domination... I mean, reshelling my RS.
