maybe wait until you actually get the wheels then test fit them and see what you need to do
Car - Ke70
motor - 4age bigport (not that it matters(
use -street daily
problem -i have recently bought new wheels and the dont fit
occurs/started when -i put the wheels on
personal situation - I have new wheels (getting) they wont fit my gaurds im running some bolton flairs and they wont fit under them and the flairs are really sketchy and look shit.
So i was wondering what i can do i have thought about putting some front flairs on the rear and was wondering how hard it is are there any pointers tips on how to do it or if anyone has any other suggesttions btw the wheels are 14x9 -25.
cheers cal.

how would putting front steel guards on the rear and flaring them, possibly give more room than decent bolt ons?
in all honestly 9 -25s are a bit overkill on a ke70
and as a daily? u wont last ten minutes lol
thoses sizes will look a bit odd on a ke as the rear gaurds are alot smaller than the fronts, so you will have stock front guards then massively flared rears
Dailys 'should' have wheels that fit in stock guards IMO
Obviously you want more extreme
My corolla had a dead flush 8 -22 with a front flared guard on the rear but that was trimmed back about 15 or so mm so 9 -25 will stick 15mm further out which is very wide but will fit with a 185/60.
But is that what you really want as a daily? That much stretch and track? Id find some 8 -10's all round and flare slightly to suit personally, or some 8 +-0 and fit them in stock rolled guards.
Your rear guards will cost you around 1500 bucks for the front to rear thing from a panel beater

AJPS.
your rear will sit out another 6mm from this, bit much for a daily imo
Finding bolt-on flares that look good and suit a *E7* is hard, i ended up getting some universal bolt on flares that i liked the look of and modded them to suit. Moulding them to fit and prepping them for paint took about 2 hours each flare (im not a professional panel beater obviously) I then modded the original guards to have ample clearance. The front guards were easy, just angle grind off the original flare leaving just a little bit of it so as to bolt on the fibreglass flare slightly further down and pushed out. The rears were harder as you had the same work as the fronts plus the inner gaurd has to be cut out aswell then shaped and re-welded to the outer lip. My bolt-on flares now give my car a 10mm lower appearance all round, 30mm more clearance at the front and 35mm more clearance at the rear. All up it took me about 10 hours and they still havent been painted yet. Goodluck.
