new alloys and tyres
Discussion
cheers for the info its now a toss up between keeping the estorils on which are 15 front and 16 rear or going for a nice set of team dynamics nothings straight forward with chims when you see a set of wheels for your car its not just a swap its a mind of measurements to consider think its best to go to an alloy wheel specialists so they can fit them properly while you wait

If your thinking about team dynamics Pro Race 5.1, Demon tweaks are a good starting point ,they sell alot of these wheels for TVR`s ,i purchased a complete wheel and tyre deal with falken 452`s from themAfter a short period i decided to change the front wheels to 16", it now drives far better with 16" wheels.
If you want to save some money and don`t mind 16" you can get a pair of 16" wheels in the above size for just over £60 each .They are very common in that size and off the shelf.The rears normaly have to be made .

Just got my 9x17 et33 on rear... Still good space inwards and out to the wheelarch! Could have gone 9,5 with 255/40... Looks good enough though
I would get the rear end on axle stands,mine catch the outrigger and they don`t fit under the arch ..I would have a closer look.Don`t think my 255`s fit !
You need to create the extremities the car will be in on road and track .

It looks like Pearl Blue, which is what mine is, have to admit I like the 17"/18" more than I thought I would when I heard about them, thanks for the pic, but again, the problem is there is no 225 40 17, that's the bugger. I'm rinning 215 front and 245 rear and I don't like it. Was thinking of going 16 front and 17 rear

I recently bought some SP12s from ACT, 17" Front and 18" rear. Very pleased with the look, just need to afix the caps on the rear after a little fettling!
Looking good. I test fitted some SP12's this morning so also need to get the caps to fit. What's your plan? Hacksaw to the thread or modify the cap?
Though the ride is definately better on the SP12's than Estorils.
