Just a suggestion to make another quick reference post as a sister thread to "List Of Wheels" - which I was literally going to suggest earlier today - great minds thinking alike eh?

Anyway, I think the best format will be

Coupe variant - (20VT)
Ride Height - (Standard or lowered by xx mm)
Rim size - (18x7.5)
Tyre size - (215/35)
Comments - (Good clearance but a crashy ride with un-modded suspension)

I know the above tyre fits as it's what I'm running at the moment.

Also, please don't guess with "I think 265/50/R20 might fit" - just a list of what does fit.

Over to you.......

Hamster

Well, I’m a bit surprised no one has anything to say on this topic?

I thought it might be a useful one-stop source of info for owners who are thinking of a wheel/tyre size change and were wondering what combinations of wheel rim .v. tyre sizes actually fit.

I got a bit fed up sifting through loads of posts and picking up snippets from here and there, but I suppose I will have to do that.

I will put what I can find on this post to make searching a bit easier in future.

Or maybe I should just ask the following questions as I’m thinking of lowering the ride in the future, and I may have to change one of my alloys because of a crack.

1. On a standard ride height 20vt with 18x7.5J rims, I know a 215/35 will fit, but will the following fit without fouling: 215/40, 215/45, 225/35 225/40?
2. On a lowered ride height 20vt with 18x7.5J rims, what size tyre will fit without fouling?
3. On a standard ride height 20vt with 17” rims (either 7 or 7.5J) , will the following fit without fouling: 215/40, 225/40, 235/40, 215/45, 225/45, 235/45?
4. On a lowered ride height 20vt with 17” rims, (either 7 or 7.5J) will the following fit without fouling: 215/40, 225/40, 235/40, 215/45, 225/45, 235/45?


I know that the speedo read out may not be the same but I can get that re-calibrated if I’m bothered.

Thanks

Hamster
