OK, went and had a look,
Mine are 7J x 15s all round,
225/60/15 on the back
205/60/15 on the front
along with 30mm spacers all round.
Whether right or wrong that is what the previous owner fitted, it does hold the road well, a little wallowy if I am picky probably due to the tall sidewalls.
Can only compare it with my MGB that was on low profile Yokohamas, with uprated, lowered suspension.
Still cannot take the TVR to our local shopping centre though, they have viciously tall road humps all over the place, and that exhaust does hang low!
Caution...... 225 /60 will rub s1 arches under squat ! I run 225/55Mine are 7J x 15s all round,

Love the front end of your carAnother mod by previous owner to cope with overheating, 400 quids worth of radiator, and holes drilled in the front panel to increase air flow.
Seems to work , has not overheated for me so far. Not so keen on the sticky reg plate on the bonnet though.

Just a revisit, noticed I said it was a bit wallowy, I blamed the side walls , but it was the steering U/J after all.

Are you bringing it to Shelsley Walsh on Sunday?
See you there if the weather plays ball.
It is my "wet weather" (and looks like it could be very wet Sunday) car but unfortunately the diff is out at the mo being overhauled. Guy said he'd try and get it done by Friday but he's very busy, short staffed etc. so said I'd rather wait a few days than have it rushed. See you there if the weather plays ball.
