Jake Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 40 series is way too high. You can get away with 35s at that width and wheel diameter but I wouldn't go any bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean about the cost? They would probably be cheaper than 275/35/18, wouldn't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fargo Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share Posted May 12, 2007 ive currently got 265/35/18 which are about done now, so was looking at perhaps going wider, maybe not as high as 40 after your ceomments.. ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon 40 profile would make it too "Starsky And Hutch" (Arse in the air) and almost certainly rub the arches on hard cornering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 TBH I went for the 285 for two reasons: 1, I have 10" wide rears so 285 isn't a problem there. 2, they were £20 per tyre cheaper than 275/35/18 at the time (God knows why) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Envy sent 275/35/18's with my CR's so guess its all ok. Depends on your suspension setup, offset and so on - seems to be a sensible size to go for though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
