Make sure you get the correct size if they are going on the S2... Cant remember what size it is you need though.

If anyone can tel me that would be great.

I have written down 245 45 18 but someone will need to confirm. I would do if I were at home as could go into the garage and look for you but Im in the office today You will also need 10mm hub centric spacers and longer wheel bolts to make them fit mate. I have all the items but havbent put them on yet so im just passing on some of the info I have and hope that its correct.

I will try 18" too. I suspect 245 245 18 will fit, 245 40 18 should be better, or even 235.. (from what i read on the forum)
Spacers will be 15mm or 20mm for me, there's not much room between the tire and the steering arm..

225 40 R18 is the correct S2 size for a 18x8J wheel. You are aiming for an offset around 35, perhaps 32 for an 8.5J wheel.

If you want 245 then you're looking at a 35 profile. 235 caould be either 40 or 35 profile.

245 45 R18 will not fit.

There we go. As told by the man in the know... Hahaha. I knew it was something different but couldnt remember what. I think I need to check the tyres I have lol.

[Rusty]

225 45 R17, 235 45 R17, 235 40 R17 and 245 40 R17 are the options for 17" 8J or 8.5J wheels

I have 2 Pirelli P zero 215/45/18 1x 2 to 3mm tread 1x 1 to 2mm tread, Even tread wear. if any good let me know.

I have some Falken 452 225/40/18 tyres currently fitted to the wheels for sale here: http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthr...159#post682159

Could be tempted to split.

Edited for accuracy!

Uh? It appears Andy is the only one that hasn't been drinking..

[Dobby84]

I always thought that 225 40 18 was the right size and didn't think I needed spacers for there wheels.

im looking for something with around 4-5mm tread as they need to be legal for MOT in a few months.
