Sorry I know we've seen enough tyre questions to last us a few months but before I order my new alloys I just wanted to ask your opion.

Old Alloys 225/45/17 Front 245/40/17 Rear

New Alloys 235/40/18 Front 265/35/18 Rear

This will raise the car around 5mm (I think?), I dont want this to be noticable (4X4 Style) What do you people think? Should I go for a 35 Profile Front and 30 Rear or Stick with the above?

Be careful not to change the wheel radius too much as it will affect

your speedo...it'll read incorrect!

 

If you up the size of rim you need to down size the profile of the tyre

to compensate so you keep the same rolling radius.

 

Know what I mean?
