Max tyre size on 17"s?
#1
I have 215/40/17 Yoko A520s fitted to my Speedline STs.
As I still have the standard suspension, the gap between the body and tyres seems too big.
(The tyres look a bit TOO skinny!)
I can't afford to have adjustable suspension fitted just yet and as my tyres are due to be replaced, I wondered if slightly higher profile tyres would fit without rubbing.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the advice - In the end I went for another set of 215/40/17's (Toyo T1'S) AND LO AND BEHOLD...... It looks fine.
The tyres on there before were barely road legal and without any tread, looked a bit skinny.
New boots after Donno on Saturday (they blistered! ) and all is well. (New vented, x-drilled discs and EBC red pads too - expensive day in the end!)
Steve B - The car is booked into Regal (Southampton) on Friday for a set of PI springs - apparently Eibach no longer make springs for MY96 or older. Should be nice'n'low for the weekend

I got pretty much the same, except I went for SO2s and the EBC green pads - figured I could switch to Red/Yellow at the next track day.
Let me know what you think of them once you get them bedded in!
