Rim width would need to check, there was already 275,s on with no problems so I followed suit

Sorry, the question about why 275s was actually to Lyons as he didnt mentioned the rim width and was just curious why not 255s.
Faster, hmmm, let me think, 275=more sidewall, naaaah, nada, it wont work for you, and anyway, half way through the corner the sound of exhaust will distract you so much that you wont be able to go faster My mate has 275s on 9'' (4.2TDi) and tyre overall look much chunkier because of the extra sidewall and he said that my 9'' wheels with 255s handle better than his 275s.

9". I'm opting for 275's as the increased profile will give a little extra comfort. Something I don't want to jeopardise at all going to the 20" wheel.

M-8 do I recall you have Toyos? I got a price of £138 per corner today which is £40 cheaper per corner than I had for the Vredestein and Goodyears.
My only fear is that I had them on a car years ago and they wore out in no time and I vowed I'd never have them again. How do you find them? How many miles have you done? |
