Default Whats happening in Boxshed

My home away from home has picked up a new nicname amongst mates out here, hence the title.

Ok, what is happening.
For an awfully long time I have been wanting to fit Billboards under my car, there is an extreemly likely chance they wont fit without modifying something.
So since there is aevery chance in the world I will want to bounce ideas around, I thought it only appropriate I start a thread, so whoever wants can follow along.

Well I have my rims in hand, a set of 15x7 & 15x10 with Jag front, Ford rear and shallow offset.
They came from Betty, so have been under a CR before, but not with Billboards.

Here is a pic I snapped of my car last Friday, when I drove him to work.


I will also chuck some lights on whilst car is off the road.


So, first question I have.
Bernie or anyone else running BillBoards, is it possable to get some measurements?
I am looking for max width at side wall bulge.
And height from ground level to rim centre with Billboard tyre fitted.

Thank you to anyone who can help.

Another toy I have that is just getting a general tidy up, before giving to my Father inlaw as a gift is the below bike.
