Nice to see another late Chimaera with the light upgrade TVR should've done.
Anyway, with those tyre sizes, aren't you finding the speedo out and it revving a bit high?

Yes they will fit with no issues. If I remember correctly,the outside rims will sit 2mm in from standard on the rears 4mm from standard on the front. There is a calculator on here somewhere that was used in another thread.

Hi Mathew (EARL GREY) your question from earlier post D5 LTR white Chimaera
Drop a line to Darren Smith (retrowheelsracing@yahoo.co.uk) great guy races a Tuscan always very helpfull if he can be, sure he will tell you where wheels are from although i think from what he has told me the Chimaera has been cut away within inner wheel arches to allow for putting on track. May not be quite correct fitting for standard car set-up
Regards
