Default r888

Hi mate ,why don't you run on 205/40/17 r888 on the front perfect for a 8" rim and no catching on the car. This size is very near to 215 ! and sit square on the wheel.

It all depends on the make of tyre, the true size of the 205 r888 is something like 214 i have these on my 3dr and they sit square with the wheel .
