It's tyre change time for the rears on my car; which currently have 235/45s (when I bought it) on the standard 17" BBS rims.

Does anyone know if they're the standard width for these cars ?
There's quite a price hike from 225 to 235, so I was wondering if it'd make much difference ?

 

JDM's came with 235/45R17 and Type UK's came with 225/45R17.

 

as above 235s were standard spec on jdm cars , its hard to find the re070s in this size so alot of people go for the 225s

 

I don't think it would make much of a difference unless driving on the limit! Ive got 225's on my 05 jdm and it's got 375 lbs of torque and drives/handles perfectly. (Bridgestone RE 050 tyres)

Give Ian Litchfield or PCM mancester a call they sometimes have 235 RE070's knocking about...
