Tyre sizes on convertible

[mogg]

Anyone put 255's on the rear and 245's on the front (F1's)?

Will this combination be OK on a standard convertible ?

Cheers

they came out of the factory with 255/35/18 on them, most people have changed the fronts to 225 to help with tram lining.....

Thanks for info.

Have you changed your fronts to 225. If so, does this have any negative effect on track, eg increase in understeer ?

Thanks

I don't do track days but find 225/40s better than the original 255/35s on the front for British roads with potholes and tramlines . But I am still on F1s (mix of German rears and Chinesse fronts) , reports on the replacement Asymetric are very mixed to say the least... X-works are waiting for a reply from Goodyear.
