I am giving some thought to tyre choice (the car has been sitting on old tyres during the build). For me, the Ultima is a dry weather car, and I want to fit the R888s.

I have two questions which I am hoping someone might be able to help with. To get the right front tyre profiile (35), the only width toyo do is a 255 (i.e. wider than the 245 standard). Old posts on this forum suggest that size will work, but I'd be grateful for a more up to date view if anyone has experience of this tyre.

Also, do you think I will have any trouble gettting the car through IVA - I am assuming not as it's a road legal tyre, but again would be interested in views.

Many thanks.

Thanks for the replies all. Any views on using a 255 width tire on the front?
