Default WHAT TIRE SIZE?

Hi.

I've recently bought a set of PFF7's to my classic my99. They are 18X8 ET51 5X100 and have a set of eagle f1 225/40/18. Sometimes they rub in the rear arches and i guess i will have to change them for a new set. What shell i buy? Is 225/35/18 enough to stop the rubbing or shell i put 215/35/18? I'm asking this because i don't like to see those stretched tires on the wheels and i'm not sure how the 215/35 will look like. any feedback would be very good.

cheers

I think your problem is the 8J wheel you're using. IIRC that's just too wide for a classic rear..?!

Try searching back for 'Rota alloy wheel group buy' there was lots of advice on classic's and 18's withing that thread iirc..
