I'm trying to get an idea of price on tyres for these style rims as I'm looking at possibly buying some nice Work (unsure of style yet) or possibly Rays Gram Light rims - most likely 18" too, they seem to be the best looking size on MR2s.
Front is 215/35 (18x8 +35)
Rear is my old 225/40's (18x9.5 +29).....soon to be 245/35 though
17's look pretty good on a stock body, 18's suit SW20's with beefier bodykits. The tyre size depends on your offset/width. Depends what you're after.....dish, tyre, hellaflush [88] If my rears had a higher offset, I'd be able to stuff 265/35's with ease (probably more) without adding camber, but at the cost of dish. Only way I could do that now is by adding a bunch of camber, which will pretty much defeat the purpose of having the wider tyres.
Tyres aren't that expensive these days, you can get some nice Kumho's or Hankook's for a decent price in Sydney. Prices got a lot better in the past few years.
