Just ordered some new OZ Prodrive Alloys 17" Gold for MY99.
I`m picking them up on Monday and need advice on tyre size.
Had good quotes on Toyo Proxes T1`s today in both 205 40 17,
and 215 40 17.Has anybody got the same wheels and what are
you running?Prices quoted to me are £305.50inc and £352.50inc.

 

We've got 205x45x17's on ours and are running Pirelli PZero's - work out at around £125 per tyre, fitted

I've got Bridgestone SO2 215/40/17 on mine - recommended but not cheap and I don't know if they're still available.

There isn't as wider range in 205/45/17.

205/40/17 would be the wrong size for the car.

Cheers,

Ian.

Cheers Guys.Looks Like The 215 40 17`s Then.

 

Ive got the Toyo Proxes T1-s 215 40 17s on my 99MY.
They are very good and I can recommend them. They need a bit of bedding in but wet weather grip/resistance to aquaplaning is incredible.
