    I'm hoping my rim sticks out the rear arch slightly but the tyre should sit still in side the arch depending on how low you want to go will depend if you need to cut the lips off the plastic arches for the tyre to miss should be fine with a stretched tyre going to try and get my Tyres fitted tuesday then I'll whack a picture up to show you all if it fits

    standard ride height should be ok with stretched tyres but stiff on dampers may be limiting stops
