The Vic Roads "Guide to Modifications to Motor Vehicles" (Section #8) states that; "The width of any replacement rim must not be 25mm greater than the widest wheel specified by the manufacture for that model of vehicle, or vehicle series;" AND "The overall diameter of any replacement rim and tyre must not be more than 15mm greater than the largest diameter tyre specified by the manufacture for that model of vehicle, or vehicle series, plus a few other standard requirements..
Keeping the original manufacture tyre/rim sizes and these legal limitations in mind, does any one have a list of possible 17&18 inch combinations for us strictly controlled Victorian folk?
