Hi,
I'm just looking at getting new wheels and tyres as I have a flat spot thanks to a pothole on one of my wheels and while hunting around for a good 18" gold alloy also wondered what profile of tyre I need to go for 40 or 35 as I know as the rim size goes up the profile needs to drop to avoid screwing with the speedo etc.
I've been looking at the Toyos and wanted the technomagnesio detroit F1 but scoobysport no longer stock them so also need to find another supplier.
Cheers
Si

Apologies it's MY00 (Feb) so old shape so I guess I need 35, can you recommend a good place to get those Oz wheels as they are the kind I'd ideally like.
