Hey everyone, I just bought a 2020 V60cc but I’m having a huge trouble finding Rylie inspired off-road wheels to wrap in bigger tires didn’t even tell me the right specifications or even inspiration or wheels to just look at

You are limited to 18" or larger, which drastically reduces options for off road rally wheels. The Sparco Terra and Sparco Gravel are the only options I have found that has a dirt rally style and fits these cars.

You are also limited in what will clear the wheel wells. I have found 235/50 R18 to work without issue, and you might be able to squeeze a 235/55 or similar, but cannot verify that you will be able to without rubbing.

For reference, here is my 2021 V60 CC with 18in Borbet Type Y rims with 45mm offset and Continental ExtremeContact DWS06+ in 235/50 R18.

Bumping up to a 235/55 R18 would increase the radius by about a half inch. There might be room in the wheel wells, but it would be very tight.

Unfortunately, there are no real lift options for these cars that I have been able to find, other than the Spaccer stacked spacer system, which could get you a bit more than 1in of extra clearance. However, that would do nothing regarding clearance in the front or rear of the wheel wells, which is already tight with the 235/50's.


Likely the best you can do is 18in rims with 235/50's, which limits you to pretty much the two Sparco options above and a set of Falken Wildpeak tires. If you do try and fit a set of taller tires, please let me know how it goes. I may try this spring myself as well or may just go with the Falken's.

I think it's both. Diameter rubs a little less.

At high speeds on uneven pavement it rubs. Like deep articulation. And at low speeds if I'm turning and hit a bump. Like back out of the driveway sometimes.

It doesn't rub much though and from what I can tell, only on plastic liners, not on wiring, cables, frame etc.
