I had 225/35 18's but you can also fit 215/35 18's. The issue is that the 225/35 18's can rub the rear arches. I never had any problems but I know that Mellow did.

Cheers

Guy's,

I've gone with 7x18 OZ Supperleggra's with 215 35 18 Toyo rubber from Scoobyworld for a total of £1160 which works out at £290 per corner.

Did not go for Gold though. Went for Anthracite as I can never make my mind up on the Gold.

Thumbs up

I got a set of OZ Supp Leg's in anthracite with 215/35/18's never had a prob on the rear although checking my tyres last week I have noticed that on the front passenger tyre it looks like something has rubbed on the inside of the tyre. It's not gone right around the tyre, but has taken a fair piece of the tyre away in a certain section.

Just looking for a couple of replacement tyres now, as soon as I have found out what has been catching I will post, along with a pic if I can ever work out how to...

Oh I paid 1100 for mine from Halfords, as I was one of the first in UK to have them in this size and col for the scoobster, halfords kept arseing me about on delivery times, when I first ordered they said 2weeks, 2 weeks later no wheels they then promised another 2 weeks, it eventually turned out to be nigh on 4months... After tons of harrassing halfords they evetually refunded me 200notes for inconvieniance, and threw in a set of wheel locks.

225 per corner luverly jubberly.
