Is the profile of the tyre low, so the overall circumference/diameter is the same?

Pic needs to be hosted on web-site (as the above is). If you hit the quote button on my post above you'll see the format.

You can upload your pic to photobucket.com for example.

What about speed bumps? Will the suspension travel not get the tyre to hit the arches? (I hope I am wrong!).

If done correctly, bigger rims but with lower profile tyres will mean the overall diameter stays the same, therefore no reason for the wheels to hit the arches, suspension travel remains the same etc.

I like them a lot. Would be a close run thing between those and the SPs though...

For example 245/40/17, 245/35/18 or 215/40/18.
