JoeNose 0 Posted August 21, 2004 May be treating myself to some 16" Borbet Es or Ts... When ordering tyres should I go for 225/40/16 or 225/45/16? I understand the latter will increase rolling radius somewhat, but I'm OK with that if I'll see a noticable benefit in ride quality. What are you all using?

JoeNose 0 Posted August 21, 2004 Thanks for the replies, the wheel are 7.5" wide. I take it 225 tyres are too much then? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
