tuscan tyre sizes

[leeroy343]

im looking for new tyres and i remeber seeing an option to go taller on the profile, and i think wider as well.

does anyone have the list of tyre sizes and any exp with the different sizes.

at the momen the fronts have 35 profile and it looks stupid, more importantly it doesnt handle well either.

thanks

I am very happy with 225/40/18 on the front (255/35/18 rear) of my Tuscan S. Less tramlining and more stable at high speeds (GY Eagle F1 Asymetric & GAZ suspension with fresh geo set up)

Another vote for 225/40 front and 255/35 rears

255/35/18 all round Verstines, no problems at all

235 40 18 front and 255 35 18 rear for me!

235/40/18 makes the front higher than te backside
don't think that's an option
225/40/18 is the better choice

The 255/35/18 is slightly smaller diameter than the 245/40/18 so the slightly narrower tyre fills the arches a bit more viewed from the side. If you change diameter at the rear watch for the change in speedo reading too.....
