Needing new tyres as was wanting to know if i went from 215/45/17 to 225/45/17 would it be ok?
I keep getting told from tyre centers that the 215/45/17 is a odd size and not many places stock them, buit 225/45/17's are easier to get hold of!

Oh this is on standard wheels....

Manager to find 2 part worn 215/45/17 Dunlop's £60 fitted, front are ok, just the back have gone on the inner edges!

They've got 7mm on so should be fine till i need to replace all 4 in about 2 years timer lol (i don't do a lot of miles).

whats wrong with some from camskill, the Falken fk 452 are about £70 a corner or so.

correct 215/45/17 too.

although in theory 225 are fine they tend to tramline more on a gtfour, not sure about lexus though

Ended up getting 2 215/45/17 Continentals part worn with 7mm depth on them, fitted and balanced for £50, bargain if you ask me.
