What 18" tyre size (I've done a search)

[Tanuki]

I've spent ages going through old threads and can find nothing but conflicting info.

These are some sizes people are running

205/55
225/55
235/45
235/50

After a load of research on Diff winding I managed to snag myself a set of RX8 alloys at a bargain £140.

So which tyre size do you run, I really want to keep as close to standard rolling radius as possible please

If possible can you please tell me the make and also a link to purchase.

Thanks

Answer is in your other thread - Fit 225/45x18 all round - no need for different sizes on front and rears.
Just make sure that the loading is at least 96 - most tyres of that size are below 96.
The 225/45x18 is only 0.15% smaller than the originals.

Thanks i was kinda hoping people would post as there is a lot of different opinions out there.

Can anyone recommend me a tyre with the correct load rating?

Thanks

I went with nexen 245 45 18 they are 100 rated and under £70 delivered each form my tyres.
They are perfect.

I went 225 55 18 toyo r37s , pre worn off a mitsu outlander. Nice and quiet and plenty of grip, hopefully should wear well and designed for a heavy 4x4 so fits my bongo!

I've got 235/55/18's, ride is better plenty tyre choice, and fills the arches up nice.

Is there any concerns with wheels designed for a car being used on a vehicle 1 tonne heavier?
