Which tyre size
Hi, I’ve just ordered the twisted classic 18 x 9 wheels. Which tyre would you recommend

265/65r18 or 285/60r18 BF Goodrich

Thanks, Baz

I've just fitted 285/60r18's - they certainly don't sit 'wide' on a 9inch rim - so would suggest that over a 265.

No problem - balanced all fine etc.
I think you could look at a 285/65/18 if you want a taller tyre - calculator shows the attached difference in height.
