why not 225/50R17? Its just like mine but a bit wider and thiner. 205/50R17


225/45R17 is the same profile and rolling distance as 205/50R17 but 20mm wider.
If you increase the width you must lower the profile ....

I'm going to be using Nankangs NS2's once I get my new wheels on. 225/40/18. I've read mixed reports about them but for a budget tyre they seem to hold their own and last for a long while.

well my michelin Energy's fitted from new have lasted approx 54k miles... it's about 1.7mm i'd say... they'll get replaced on the next service this/next week.

i've no idea what i'll get. it's all dependent on cost these days!
