Question

I've been told by a supplier that the only 17" version of Toyo T1-S types available at the moment are 215/40/ZR17. There appears to be some problem with supply. I would prefer 215/45/ZR17, because of the better ride quality, etc.

Has anybody experienced the same problem?

Are the 40's only suitable for motorway driving?

I had a look at some older posts on tyre prices, but I'm still not clear on a fair price. What price should I expect to pay per corner?

Thanks.

Podge, the correct sizes are either 205/45/17 or 215/40/17. Anything other than these could make a difference to the speedo.

If you have aftermarket 17's then the correct size will be 215/40/17 z rating better but because its a gx it wont really matter if you get v rating
Are the standard turbo wheels 205/45/17??? (my01)
