Tyre choice...

[#Nick]

Hi Guys

I have a set of 8.5x19 BBS LM reps and had a blow out the other day.
If im honest, all 4 tyres need replacing.

I currently have 235/35/19, but due to the cost, was looking at 225/35/19.

Does anyone have a pic of 225 on 8.5j wheels so I can compare?

thanks!

Only about £20 or £30 difference in the price of 4 tyres between the 235 and the 225.

Definately looks better asthetically.

LM Reps any good ?

I would say the original 235 tyres. Got my last tyres from Tyreleader which are really good, but there is also Openeo, Blackcircles, mytyres, and even asda tyres!

Camskill and find someone to fit them at the right price, There seems very little difference in the price between 225 and 235 tyres, personally I would go with the 235 tyres for some more rubber on the road and less stretch.
