DD, 235 will be a big improvement from a 215.
I did this with the BJ 46 :

Had some issues fitting the new wheels and tyres (I have settled on General Grabber AT, 235/85.), the offset of the wheel is too wide, so need to install wheel arch extensions.
They arrived just before Christmas, so I have been preparing them ready to install. I will take the car for it's annual inspection before fitting, then I have a year to worry about the paper work. I have them measured, trimmed and punched holes in them ready. The fronts are a bit tricky as the wing is very narrow underneath where the screws will go.

Hi Shayne just found theses if there ok buddy View attachment 23186View attachment 23187

Where the hell do i get a set of those lights?! They're awesum

Got them off eBay but the seller I got them off is no longer on there now.

FINALLY!!!!!

Got around to getting the wheels and tyres fitted. Wheel arch extensions need teasing with a hot air gun to get them sitting nicely.

Tyres are General Grabber 235/85 AT. Wheels are 7" wide, with +7 offset. One of the wheel studs broke, is it possible to buy them separately?

Here are some photos for your viewing pleasure -

Big improvement DD shame the gov rules there prevent modification but you have done well to make a statement and remain in spec

If you wanted a more OEM look, you could try and find a set of OEM wheel flares like the GX/VX models have, though this would also mean finding the front and rear bumpers to complete the look

Good work though!

I found this site tiresize.com, compare tyre and wheel combinations and visualise the differences....
