By my maths i work out my tyres of 195/15 (usually 80 profile) to be 27" tall but as i see it from others its not an exact science with the remoulds! The same maths if its working right
work yours out to be 28". Some say 215's catch without a lift some have no problems at all. Going by mine(and an inch difference is negligible) i would say risk it. Its only going to catch on full lock on the arch liners.

try them on and see where they rub first. im sure you'll just get away with just trimming a little off the front and rear bumpers,

I can't fault bits4vits, they fit nicely into the seat and are moulded to the end of the coil.

I had 1" spacers and I cut the original rubbers down and put them inbetween the spacer and the spring locators on the chassis. And I put 225 75 15 colway mt with no rub what so ever. but I do have to say not all tyres are as whats stated on the tyre as these were retreads. It was not about the price I just wanted a little lift with the same on road manners. I will go for 1.25" as I feel that this is the right height but will get spring sacers as well this time round.
