    What size tyres?

    Hey guys,

    I got my new wheels and now I need some tyres, they are 18x8.5 ET45 and my GTI will be lowered by around 30mm.

    Can I fit 235 35s or am I stuck with 225 40s?

    Also who do people go to in Adelaide for their tyres? need to get them asap as my current tyres are almost bald.

    thanks in advance guys.

        It's an 8.5" rim 215s are a no go. The minimum I want to run is 225, a 235 would be better but I'd like to hear from anyone running this size and the potential issues I might face.

        I have heard of a few bad experiences with the Cluse Bros TP might give them a miss, cheers for the input though.

          I have 225/35/19 on a 8.5" it's not bad at all, I have mates that run 205/45/17 on a 10"
