As above the recommended size by Prodrive for 18's is 225/35/18 but if the rim is only 7.5" in width then you will be ok for 215/35/18 but if you can afford the 225's then get these.

Be prepared for these to rub..... 225/40 as stated above is not recomended for a classic. Up to you if you want to ignore all the advice but why ask in the first place?
