Grazer Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Someone once told me that a certain kind of fairly cheap alloy wheel was no good as the 18" width would be too narrow for my tyres. I currently run 18/40/275 on the backs, so what's the minimum width of wheel that I could put these tyres on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 I run those tyres on 10" width wheels. Ben.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grazer Posted November 19, 2004 Author Share Posted November 19, 2004 Woops, I'm talking mince (again) 18/40/245 on the rears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibrar Jabbar Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 I wouldn't recommend anything less than 9" on the rear, most common upgrades are 9.5" or 10" ideal for 275's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Stock TT is supposed to be on 255 on the back innit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibrar Jabbar Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 J spec TT with 9x16 rears has 245/50/16's UK spec TT's 9.5x17 with 255/50/17's as standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Ah right hence why Grazers 18's might have been put on with 245's as it was maybe upgraded from 16's not 17's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
