PhatB Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Hoping someone can help me here. I 've managed to get a set of 18" alloys from a scrap yard off a written off mkiv. The alloys didn't have tyres so I was wondering if anyone could advise on what profile tyres etc. I should get. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 i have 235/40/18 on the front and 255/35/18 on the rear. depending on what width your wheels are you may want to go up to a 265/35 on the rear but i didn't feel i needed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhatB Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 Cheers for that. I'm just trying to find somewhere that sell tyres. I went to Kwik Fit but they just said to go and find out! So much for tyre experts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhatB Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 just measured from edge to edge of wheel and it is 230, but apparently you can't get 18" tyres that are 230 wide. I assume 235 will do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
