Castle Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Can't get these in a 265/35R18 anywhere, apparantly Goodyear UK has been trying to get some since Feb with no success!! Anyone got any ideas or recommend a similar tyre? how about the Pirrelli Zero's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 or 255/35/18 (going on my wheels today), no stock level problems with these afaik? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castle Posted June 3, 2004 Author Share Posted June 3, 2004 will 275's or 255's be alright? any worse or better than 265's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Well, 275 obviously has more rubber, and it's what Toyota recommend on their Lexus 10x18" rims... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castle Posted June 3, 2004 Author Share Posted June 3, 2004 these are 9" wide at the back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 i personally found the pirelli's a very good tyre ........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Originally posted by Castle these are 9" wide at the back i'm fitting 255/35/18's to my 9" wide rims, good rolling radius match to stock 17's and keeps the same 235 / 255 widths really can't see a problem with doing this (maybe a tiny bit less ride comfort?), 275's may be too large for a 9" rim and also overkill for an NA imo......
