The guys at Bowler recommended BFG AT 265/65R18 tyres when I got mine they sit nicely to the outside of the arches, also adjusted the steering stops to give me more lock Thumbs Up

Was told the 285s are just a bit too wide and reduce the turning circle.

I nearly bought a set of Silverline Manta wheels with 285 tyres, was a bit scared by the reduced turning circle as I spend a lot of time in city centre car parks.

Oh and you'll have hour and hours of fun cleaning them!!! I'm about to invest in some Dodo Juice wheel wax to see if it helps keep them clean!! Rolling Eyes 2014 110 2.2TDCi XS Station wagon

Is that the best price? Not sure I'm that keen on spending £450 per alloy.
