Tyres wanted
« on: 09 October 2011, 11:54:21 »
Long shot, but am after a pair of 245-45-20 Tyres, must have 5mm of tread plus. Anyone know of any at a good price?

Yep, but as it's a ratio of the 245 width it will actually be slightly bigger than the 45 ratio of the 235 width tyre ;)

on a 20 inch , it will be a LOT bigger than the miggy tyres/./// 

(by which i mean the total diameter measurement, not the aspect ratio)
