faster I think as the radious of the tyre is smaller. I may be talking mince here, but that's my theory! Don't experiment with speed cameras and come running back to me if I'm wrong!!

I had a £500 credit outstanding at Wheel Mania, but i desperately needed some cash to buy my new wheels - bascially i just ordered these 4 BRAND NEW tyres in the hope that i can sell them so i can raise the cash instead of having it as a credit in my name!

Any offers???

I am in Newbury, as i assume collection would be the best option really!

yep, normal scooby sizes are 205/45/17 or 215/40/17.

£280 is the cheapest price new from Mytres.net (215/40/17)

These are 205/40/17, they were bought for a Clio 16v, but i don't need them now - i know a lot of people who look on here don't just own scoobys - sorry if it was confusing!

Cheers guys,

Nick.

Using 205/40/17s on a scooby isn't going to make a hell of a lot of differnce to having a 45 profile - will affect speedo accuracy very slightly and that's about it.

Just picked up some Yokohamas so definitely not able to now. They are the ones I was really after.

Cheers and good luck.
