Correct tyre sizes for 2005 T350C 3.6L

[mr lock pick]

Dear all

I have been trying to order 4 new Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 tyres for a standard 3.6 Litre T350c on a 2005. Long story that I can't be bothered to even begin.

Point is I am gettin g different specs & sizes quoted from various dealers and independant specialists. Currently my car has 225/35/18 on front & rears are 235/40/18.

Is this the original spec. I have noticed that some t350c have 255/35/18 on rear, is this a mod that was fitted to the Red Rose cars. Some dealers have informed me that TVR fitted whatever they had at the time.

Can you please let me know what the majority of you are running on.

Thanking you all in advance.

iv had two sets of 235's and prefer the 255's, either will do though

Mine are the same sizes as you quote below - 235 x35 and 245 x40. Standard factory fit sizes. They seem to work just fine. Some have commented on 255s rubbing at the rear.

Nothing "Standard" about T350C's

Just put 255/35 F1s on my standard T350C. No problems at all - in fact thinking of dropping the ride height a tad. Looks cool as well...

They catch the arches in a Sagaris so best of luck.

You obviously dont drive it as it should be then..

err, maybe you're right! Although it does seem pretty jacked up? Probably got >80mm gap between arch and tyre?! Is that normal - most other 350s I've seen look very much lower.
