Hi there.
Have RB5 with 215/40/17 tyres (Eagle F1).
Are these too wide? Supposed to wear 205/45/17.

Know nothing, please help.

No those tyres are fine for your car. As standard it will have come with 205/45/17 but 215/40/17 is more widely available and the rolling radius is roughly equivalent.

Thanks for that.

I'll feel more comfortable letting rip now. (By which I mean accelerating harder - not the other letting rip) Fnarr, fnarr.
