Hey guys

looking at buying some 17"x8 rims and still deciding on what tyre specs to get,, i want wide as possible. i know 215's will fit with out hitting the guards. has any 1 fitted anything wider, like the 235's?

thanx

hey nemz. go with the 205's. anymore than that you'll be in trouble with the fellas in blue if you get pulled over...but if you really want wide tyres it's up to you.

iv got 205s at the moment on my stock 15's.. and what can i say,, there crap as anything, maybe coz im running out of threads but still,, i cant do a good take of with them, if i hold the revs anything past 2k, i get 10 years of wheel spin. and when raining,, like lets not go there,lol and i do have plans for putting a turbo in, so max grip is needed bad,lol even if i have to flare out the guards.

Dude, crappy tires are crappy tires... whether they are 185's or 225's!!

A good set of 205's will be betta all round than a s#!itty set of solid compound wider tires!
