So I want to fill my rear arches a bit more , I have a set of 20 inch hsv wheels , on a Hsv ve2 maloo , front is 245/35/20 the rear is supposed to be 275/30/20 will 275/35/20 fit or mess up the abs and Tc due to the different size , please advise thanks

Works fine on my VE Commodore wagon. Looks really good too, some serious meat. Some pictures for reference, it's lowered on H&R Coilovers so it's actually slighty lower at the rear than I'd ideally like. The driver's side rear can rub on sharp compressions or when loaded up in the back (not ideal in a Ute...!) but I think where the arch has taken a tap it may have just pushed the lip in slightly.

It never rubbed at all on standard suspension even heavily loaded.

Just remember it will throw out both the speedo and the odometer.

My VF wagon had 19s from factory but had 20s on it when I bought it. According to an online calculator that meant it would read 3% low.

In Oz 1 km/h over the limit earns a ticket so it went back on 19s asap smile

As long as the slightly different tyres fit ok and Abs and tc is not an issue , I don't mind it , as it under reads a bit any way , just wondering if the 35 v actual 30 would make a difference

So got the rear tyres fitted with no issues , no abs or tc issues , car appears to handle a bit better than before , arches a bit fuller , it's running on coilovers any way which helps
