HI Guys

Can someone tell me the sizes for the Pirelli's on my AMV8 please? I think they are 285 rears and 245 fronts but I need the full dimensions?


Mark.

Will these wider tires fit on the standard v8v 19" wheels?

I'm getting close to needing new tires (the rears are almost bald) but the lack of choices in standard sizes (235 F 275 R) makes me think about upsizing.

Thanks!

yeah, they were developed and tested on the standard wheels - and are optional I think if you reall want them from new

beware they are a road legal track tyre - that means superior dry grip at the limit, poor water clearing (aquaplaning at lower speeds than normal) and poor wear ...maybe a few thousand miles on the rears

so not what Id use for a daily driver type of car all year around, but for a weekend user, with the odd trackday then go for it...thats what they are for smile
