215/40/17 do i need to get the exact same size?
Im still searching for the right tyre. But some tyres i like i cant get the size i have on now(215/40/17). Do i need it to be the same as i have now, or can it be a little different. I'm clueless on what it all means apart from the size at the end.
Help a plonker out please?

You can go for 205/45/17 on your classic, these are the correct size, the 215/40/17 are the next nearest and are more popular, dont go for 215/45/17 as these will make your speedo under read (think thats right), which is illegal
