Vortex Alloys Tyre Sizes - mspdan - 24-01-2014

Having a slight problem with my wheels, i have had 205 50 17 tyres fitted but they do not fitted my car, i presume what i actually need is 205 40 17 tyres?

Obviously i may need slight spacers which i have but just wanted to check before i go order four tyres ready for the mot

thanks guys

You need 205/40r17 for them to fit a 306. Think the 205/50r17 are for 307s

yes what i thought was told they would fit but they dont and have an mot tomorrow but trying to find some tyres is a nightmare :/

You might get away with 205/45/17 depending how low your car is.

205/40/17 is a far more common size than a 45 profile, so would be cheaper, by how much I have no idea

I have some 17 tyres.
