| 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. _________________  Cabby gone but not forgoten. |

| Erm maybe, wont be any stretch. i had them on my 8.5 fronts when i first bought them, have a looka t the ealrier pick when i first put the splits on. might look abit funny wiht far stretch on the back and normal size tyre on front _________________  Cabby gone but not forgoten. |

| 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. _________________  Cabby gone but not forgoten. |
