If it helps at all, I have 235/60r14 on 14 x 8's on the front with no issues.
I also have 235/60r15 on the back with 15 x 8's. If these had a different offset, I could get bigger underneath it.

Hi Agro,

That is good to know actually, I have 8 x 14's all round and the widest I can go tyre wise on the front at the moment is 215. Anymore and I'll hit the guard.

I will have to look at adjusting offsets etc if I get new rims made to order considering what might need to be looked at behind the wheel.

As for the rear, I have put a Stato disc brake rear end in that brings the hubs out a bit compared to the standard drum rear.

The 235's on the rear fit snug under the rear with not much room to go inboard due to the springs and I cannot come out anymore as the wheel will hit the guard.

It does occasionally hit the inner guard now when there is a load in the back and driving over bumps in the road.
