Depends what you mean by fit! I put some 8.5 and 9.5 X 16's on my Corrado and they fitted on but they stuck out about and inch from the wheel arch, so they came straight off and the standards went back on and the splits were sold. I'd say even with G60 archs the Borbet's wouldn't fit properly without some serious arch rolling and pulling.

As above, unless you're running Range Rover ride height you're going to need a bit of arch work.
