ive been looking at some of the Inovit alloy and tyre deals on potn.co.uk. On the site it only gives you the option of budget tyres but you can call for quotes on upgrades. Which size should i get keeping in mind im looking at 18's for my classic and i dont want any rubbing etc.

so the question is 215x35x18 or 225x40x18 on these 18x7.5 rims

Inovit Redline 18 X 7.5 Gunmetal set of 4 wheels and tyres

cheers

Classics should run 215/35 but you could get away with 225/35's.

225/40/18 are newage fitment.

read some bad things about 18s on classics since posting this, looking at 17x7 versions of these alloys now, would 215x40x17 be a good size ?

richiewong

Yep, most people run 215/40/17 as to 205/45/17 as there's more choice of tyre to go for

Also instead of budget tyres, try a price up a set of Toyo T1-S or newer T1-R these aren't incredibly expensive and are proven tyres.

yeah, theres no way im buying budget cack. Im going to have to order something tomorrow as ive got no thread, really strugling to make my mind up which alloys and which size, although im favoring 17s now

if your fitting 18,s you will need 215/40/18 or 225/40/18 the 40 being a narrower side wall depth to keep the cicumference the same, i presume your originals were 215/45/17 or 205/45/17

sharpydoo

originals are 16s

205/50/16's on CLASSICS as previously mentioned you'll need 215/40/17 or 205/45/17's
