17x8 is a good size, but the offset is also important being as close to ET35 as possible. I assume 4x108 PCD and 6?mm bore.

The way I looked at it for a Chimaera was to keep the diameter as close as possible to the OEM.
On a 17” rim a 245/40 would be 628mm. A 245/45 = 652, 235/45 is 643 and a 225/45 is 635. In fact i don't Think there is a wrong size so long as the circumference is within a few %. But what tyres have you currently?

Thank you. Had them ages, I reckon they could do with replacing now though

I presume these are SP12s. They fill the arches nicely but do they need spacing to get this result? The one thing putting me off putting them on a Chim is that the offset doesn't seem wide enough to fill a Chim's front arches
