Hi Guys
So im getting some new wheels on, i iwll post the pics once they are fitted
I am looking for some 205/40/17 tyres, otherwise maybe a bit bigger as my rims now have 245 semis on so i know they can go bigger at the back

Don't buy kak tyres.
If you want good value in 205/40/17, TWT sells Michelin Pilot Exalto for R799.
Also, if your wheels currently have 245 semi's on there is no way that 205's are going to fit, unless the 245's are way too wide for the rims. 205's fit 7 and 7,5 J rims.

true,, after thinking about it i would rather spend a bit more money for decent tyres
i wanted to put some wider wheels at the back but decided to just get 205's all round, then i could swap them out.
My mags has some 205's up front and some 245's at the back. Will check if the rears arnt maybe wider than the fronts
