Spent yesterday arvo rearranging the garage.
Still tight but does fit.
I'm going to install a wheel stop for peace of mind
Those shelves will also be coming down today. They're sturdy enough but can't access them with the car parked so pointless really.
Also, front brakes seem very dusty.
I bought some cheap wheel stoppers for my car from Aldi.
They’re nice and heavy and can be bolted to the floor or just be placed using their weight to stop them from moving.
They worked well as long as someone doesn’t accidently move them a bit as a few inches further back when the fit is tight can mean touching the wall before you feel your wheels touching them.
I then replaced them with these so I could drive in or reverse in without having to move them no matter which way the cars are facing.
The wheel stops because the front and rear overhangs of cars are different need to be adjusted to suit.
They flash when you touch them or at least a couple of years ago they did before the batteries went flat but as I can see them in front of me I don’t need them flashing and when I reverse I can see them in the mirror and in the reversing camera.
If these are moved you can still see them and will touch them before the wall.
Given how little room you have I’d use both.
One of the best things you can do for light coloured rims, in fact for all rims is to give them a good clean then apply a couple of layers of sealer like you would for your bodywork.
It makes brake dust easy to clean off plus resists stains and road grime and tar is much easier to shift and if you clean them regularly it means your good rims don’t start pitting from hard stuck on tar deposits.
I use this on all my rims.
