All depends on what Tyres .... the ad08r that I run are very wide in comparison to the same size other makes . I’d stick to standard sizes as I have

We need some context here. Are you looking for performance from this setup?

I track it so they need to be good.
PS4's are what I've specced but want to make sure I get the right width tyre for the wheels.

I have ps4’s on my other car ... in my opinion in the dry and warmer weather the ad08r’s have far more grip and are also suited to track as well .

I drove a car with a048 yesterday (sprite) and it was fantastic even in the damp but I drive my car day to day so need that ability to handle really wet if needs be.
what width do you run on the wider wheels? Do you stick with 215 and 245 or do you go 235 and 255 etc?

standard sizes

I did my first track day last year with the ad08r’s and it was absolutely horrendous weather , standing water ect . The Tyres coped fine . But either tyre is very good to be honest

Hi I have them, I'm in Kent, I have ad08r 215 45 front and 245 40 rear. If I hit a big enough bump or dip then the backs can catch the arch. I tried uploading a pic but its not working from my phone
