What tyres size
« on: 03 June 2009, 13:37:10 »

Ive just bought some 18" snowflakes for my 2002 elite, I can get hold of some 235/40/18's at a good price. Will these fit with no probs or should it be 235/35/18?
Cheers

235/40/18=  1.336% too fast
235/35/18=  5.198% too fast. i would go with the 40`s.. i have just fitted 225/40/18 on my mig. thats about the closest size to keep my speedo correct. about 1mph slow. hope this helps.  :y
