Hi all,
I am going to be fitting some "standard" BugEye wheels with 215/45/17 tyres to my classic turbo. Can anyone tell me the correct pressures for these tyres please?

on a bugeye, I work on F33, R32psig but the weight of a classic is different so you'll have to adjust until you feel the balance is OK...

Will 215/45's fit a classic? Got 17's fitted to my type r and the recommended sizes given were 205/45 or the more common 215/40, opted for the latter.

So far they seem to fit fine, quite close to the strut at the back, but at least 1cm clearance. I will be keeping a close eye on this over the next few days.
