    About 4-5% larger according to the old 1010 calculator.

    Nice work with the wheels - that is a serious bit of kit! How is the ride? I also want to know if you are considering getting some H&R springs in and whether they will fit after lowering?

    I think coilover dumpage is required with these wheels

    has anyone played with the +/-10% thing for winter tyres to keep everything accurate if you go bigger?

    When i first saw the 30 and 25 series profile tyres i was thinking the ride will be terrible,but to my surprise the car ride is better and handles a lot better...i say more feedback.
    As long as the missus don't complain...i'm happy with that.
    Will look into some sort of lowering in future....maybe a set of coilovers. My recent purchase of these wheels and tyres is killing the budget

    From all reports the H&R coilovers are excellent, total lowering of about 2.5" all round, just right IMO. Yes I want some

    These were for sale at volkspower, burwood VIC when i was down there yesterday... Maybe a tad exe for used, but they may consider offers? Glossy black, would look pretty nice on, IMO...

    3k is a right royal rip off.
    You can get some classy wheels that weigh less for much less $$$.
    Also have to factor in the cost of tyres since the Tig runs a larger profile.



    My new wheels arrive on Wednesday!

    Yep they better be made in Italy!

    But I reckon you can buy reps of these (direct from China) for about one-third of the cost!

    Been there and done that!
