Basically trie they tyrestretch webiste but it only goes up to 9 not 10 what tyres would give me mild stretch? 18" rims. backs are 10 and the fronts are 7.5 i think?

Best youll do on the fronts m8 is the 205/40s its the narrowest you can go with 18s, as far as i know anyway. i was gonna run 225/40s on the 10s go tthem on my 9.5s and went on pretty easy. a 215 can be done on a 10j but thats alot of stretch an would be abit overkill compared to the front.

fair enough the 215s are cheaper. but theyll look s**t, most likely not give you any clearance for goin low so youll have s**t stance and silly looking tyres, all because you wanted to save a few quid. just save up abit longer m8.
